Publishing industry

Just a quick one today: Gill James - a fellow educational and fiction writer whom I met at the SCBWI retreat and who is a member of Wordpool posted a link to an interesting article in the Times about the publishing industry, which ties in quite well with the previous post on small presses. Here it is for you. Read it- it's worth it.

I'm busy writing today and dealing with a near miss- yesterday my boiler decided to stop lighting and, of its own accord, started to spew out neat gas, so, in the evening, a helpful man from TRANSCOM, who carried a a buzzing metal implement, stopped my gas as it was unsafe. I'm waiting for British Gas to turn up today and fix the boiler. Lucky for me it's the summer.
