I see your point. I've been out of circulation just long enough that the ways electronic publishing will start effecting things makes me wonder if traditional publishing will survive the decade. Will anyone need agents in future publishing? Will Hollywood bother to buy books, or just revamp ideas, like Glen Larson and Bellasarios (sp?) do?
And once again, information overload rears its head. How can you sift through hundreds of self-published books and figure out what you'd like, without NYC editors to sift the wheat from the chaff? I would become a library reader in self-defense, perhaps--or my grapevine would become even more important.
