Eating Vegan in Vegas: If It Can Happen Here . . . It Can Happen Anywhere
With a Foreword by Elizabeth Kucinich

{The how, the when, the why again and again of publishing}
We writers are a funny lot. So guarded of our time, we tend to fall into two camps--those who understand and make use of our understanding of the publishing process and those who don’t possess that knowledge and are therefore fall victim to the industry.
I didn’t learn about the publishing industry by taking courses. I worked in publishing from the time I moved to NYC. Since then, my interest in this business has been one of …

The Sullivan Street Press Road Trip
Some would call it shrewd guerilla marketing, 2012 style. Others would call it high-mileage performance art. Deborah Emin and Suzanne Pyrch simply call it a fun way to traverse the country and meet some new people on the road-with the added perk of publicizing their self-published books.
Emin and Pyrch, partner publishers of Sullivan Street Press (SSP), recently embarked on a two-month road trip with the intent of traveling from their home base of New York …

Currently, the publishing industry should be working towards the goal of decreasing their reliance on fossil fuels by using more renewable energy to run their business.
Let us now praise the bound book and wish it well in the great artifact hereafter. We live in a world that has changed radically since we woke up in 2007 or 2008 when the first pronouncements of the death of the printed book made headlines. In many ways, those pronouncements were a set of …
