In 50-100 words, what's wrong with the publishing world today?
Cost shifting. Publishers used to cover permission fees. Now authors must do so. Publishers used to edit, and all an author needed to do was provide a fairly clean typescript. Now they want everything camera-ready in PDF format with all the major editing already done . . . by the author. Publishers used to promote books. Now authors have to promote their own, and in many cases supply a promotion plan along with the manuscript in order to even be considered for publication. And we have no recourse except self- or online publishing.
