You remember when there was that post about why it’s not logical to assume that traditional publishing means better quality than self-pub/vanity press?
I present even further evidence: a seven figure deal for yet another Twilight fanfic turned non-fanfic novel.
I just can’t even. I don’t even really know how to make commentary on this because it just shows how fucked up the U.S. publishing industry is. I don’t know whether to be angry, sad, or never pay for a book that this company publishes ever again in my life.
Because seriously, the individuals involved in giving seven figures to an author who pretty much ripped off already shoddy characters and just changed the names? Never get another dime of my money and will never be taken seriously by me again.
