Break the Spine

Welcome to the Revolution! I'm Monique Trottier of SoMisguided.com and I'm tired of the book publishing industry not being able to en masse figure out how to create a free economy for books. By free, I mean libre not gratis. This is not about ebooks or giving away books for free. This is about how do we find a way for creators to make money creating, how do we manage a sustainable industry, how do we get books into the hands of readers. My definition of book can be different from yours. This is not a war of formats. This is a revolution (a full turn of the wheel) on how we think about the creation, editing, production, distribution and promotion of book content.
