I’m late to finding this post, but I’m so excited about this book! Just bought it, and like the other person above, I paid for it instead of using the Prime option. You work hard giving us such great advice. Even though I don’t comment often, I love reading your posts. Looking forward to reading the book!

I’ve always been a bit skeptical of self-publishing, and couldn’t see how it benefited traditionally published material. You’ve raised some great points I had not considered, Kristen. And I loved the comparison of indies to colonists versus traditionalists representing England. I hope you are right and that one day the two embrace one another. That would be the best of all possible worlds for readers and writers alike, IMO!

I think it’s interesting that a lot of the talk around this subject treats it as if there’s one traditional approach and one new approach and that’s it. I know we often simplify to make a point, but actually there’s a lot of diversity in approaches to publishing right now, and some interesting stuff going on in the middle ground between the supposed old and new paradigms. For example, check out the (somewhat controversial) big publisher electronic-only publishing discussed in this article:
