Treasuring the Artifacts of Publishing

September 6, 2009

Is the screen the new paper? Will publishing houses go the way of the old-fashioned record store? Is digital delivery the new bookstore? Is Google the new library? Is the author the new musician, playing directly to the audience? Is the audience the new author?

I can’t answer these questions. I am no longer in book publishing. I ran from the building several years ago, the moment I glimpsed Charlie Darwin sitting in the corner office.
