At the beginning of this year, we covered Brandon Sanderson’s dispute with audio book monopolists Audible. The epic fantasy king and neopatronage pioneer announced his intention not to publish the audio versions of his $40 million crowdfunded books through Audible. His stated reason? That the Amazon subsidiary failed to offer industry-standard royalty rates and transparency to small publishers and independent authors.
This is truly news to me and I'm glad you reported on it.
My pleasure.
Hail Brandon.
Hail victory.
