Common Misconceptions About Publishing

Charles Stross published in his blog (in English) a very interesting series of articles running under the common heading Common Misconceptions About Publishing and which I think they for some here might be of interest, both as author and as a reader, who are concerned with the events of the book industry. In any case:

Common Misconceptions About Publishing # 1: The publishing industry makes sense.

CMAP # 2: How Books Are Made

CMAP # 3: What Authors sell to Publishers

CMAP # 4: Territories, Translations, and Foreign Rights

CMAP # 5: Why books are the length they are

(The Post series is obviously not ready yet and this list will be added here ...)

This manuscript Hires People

course Stross writes mainly about the English-speaking market - he is British - and especially about fantasy and science fiction, so a lot can be transferred but certainly, I think. Above all posts 2, 4 (who also explicitly on the German SF & F market is received) and 5 were particularly insightful for me personally, but the others are not half bad.
