I just posted a piece to the FastPencil Bookmarket blog. It's about how authors really are trapped between big publishers and Amazon right now. So many authors persist in thinking that the status quo is the only viable way to publish, but I just can't see that approach lasting for long. Yes, I'm biased, because I work at FastPencil. But I wouldn't have taken the job here in the first place if I didn't think the status quo was in need of some serious disruption.
