Getting Published

This section points to resources that may help authors trying to publish their work. We address publishing in traditional markets, as well as the impact of new trends (the massive growth of "indy" and mid-size presses, shifting paradigms for "publication" and revenue-generation), technologies (such as POD), and modalities (such as internet publication and various flavors of ebooks and audiobooks/podcast-books).
