I don’t know about you, but I love words.
I love poetry and literature and great letters. I loved being an English major in college. And I’ve always considered myself a writer and editor before anything else. It’s been that way long before the internet existed.
But I also love the times we’re in, when an average person like me can make an extremely lucrative living on the web from this thing called “content.”
Why Mainstream Publishers Can’t Make Money
October 6, 2010 By 2 Comments
Looking around the web, I’ve noticed two types of publishers—private and public (these are terms I coined myself).
What makes a blogger?
A penchant for the rant? A crowd hustler with sticky offers? A spirited journalist, an observer of life, a thought leader?
And what about the rest of us, scratching hard to make (not even a) living? Is it all for nothing or is there a future for us?
The answer is absolutely. The titanic publishing industry is mobilizing, and we need to upgrade our strategy.
