The publishing of a book is a worldwide event. The attempt to suppress a book is a worldwide event.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When you publish a book, it's the world's book. The world edits it.
There's a lot more to publishing a book than writing it and slapping a cover on it.
A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.
It is important to find a publisher and equally important not to be noticed until your third or fourth book.
When you write a book for publication, you're writing it for other people to read.
Publishing is a very mysterious business. It is hard to predict what kind of sale or reception a book will have, and advertising seems to do very little good.
A good part of the work is just reading a manuscript and coming to the office. I can't imagine wanting to even read an article about book publishing.
Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill.
Once you publish a book, it is out of your control. You cannot dictate how people read it.
I am not in the business of suppressing books.
