Quotes:
“Some authors are only getting $5,000 from a traditional publishing house and some are getting $250,000, but they have no control. Like we’re seeing some of the contracts. They only can repurpose 10% of their content and things like that. They can’t make a workbook out of it. They can’t do anything else.” (09:41)
“Never go shopping when you’re hungry. It’s on Amazon and everywhere books are sold.” (24:12)
