Moving Toward a New World of Publishing

We are currently in the middle of a revolution in the way information is created, delivered, and defined. Who decides what art is, what role consumers of art should play in its creation, and how everything gets done are in the middle of a vast and deep transformation.

The literary-industrial complex is losing some of its way. It won't go away altogether because it is sometimes useful. But we are seeing a smushing together of creators of art and consumers of art.

How this is going to sort itself out is anybody's guess. However, the ability of us writers to determine our own fate and define art as we see it is growing rapidly. We no longer have to rely on the way others see art and fit ourselves to it and beg for their recognition of our art.

More on this next time.
