"..with the kinds of friends the book has, it needs no enemies.." A great read by Richard Nash, who in the 90's founded and built one of the seminal indie presses, Soft Skull. Would be great if he pushed this toward a book. No one else is writing about the history or future of publishing with such a depth of knowledge.

Also, loved the Vonnegut excerpt: "The entire planet can get along nicely now with maybe a dozen champion performers in each area of human giftedness."

Thanks for posting the story.
