The LA Times held a panel this past week on the issue of publishing.
The panel, moderated by the Times book editor David Ullin, included former PW editor-in-chief, publishing consultant and author of So Many Books, So Little Time Sara Nelson; Richard Nash, former head of Soft Skull Press; Otis Chandler, founder of the Goodreads Web site and Patrick Brown, Vroman’s Books’ webmaster and blogger engaging in a sometimes adversarial conversation about the profound changes that challenge the core of book publishing, how writers and readers connect, and how books are bought and sold.
The panelists discussed the meaning of gatekeepers, supply chain issues, and technology. The small summary is worth a read.

@Mel I changed it. I hope it works now.
