Whitee - Purveyor of Fine Beats...Provider of Lyrical Treats
Music, culture & politics. We'll also update Whitee's recording progress.Saturday, January 06, 2007
Regular readers of this blog - all three of you - know that I get stuff (links, subject matter & titilation) from Violet Blue. I won't gush, but let's just say - she rocks!
Anyway, in the wonderful world of book publishing, the shit seems to have hit the fan with an Enron-type scandal that is going to screw book publishers. You can read about the whole thing HERE.
The big companies (like Random House) are going to lose a ton of money, which I don't care that much about, but the small independent publishers are going to be wiped out. They are the small businesses that survive month-to-month. So here's how I'm going to do my part to help:
I'm encouraging all three of you to start buying some smut, goddammit! Go over to Cleis Press right now and buy some books. If you've always wanted to buy some erotica, a how-to book, or just something different that you haven't read before - now is the time!. Of course, I'm biased, so I'd say you should buy some of Violet's stuff...but anything is fine. Now is the time to be a consumer: BUY! BUY! BUY!
