Hines Wed, 24 Jun 2009 12:17:10 +0000 http://www.sandrewswann.com/?p=1629#comment-6177 Hm ... I don't know that I'd label that rant as anti-self-publishing. I get accused of being a self-publishing hater sometimes, which isn't the case. I do hate some of the tactics used by some of the more desperate authors, and those tactics tend to be a lot more common from self-published authors. Anyway, my own defensiveness aside, yeah. How dare Rothfuss write a good book and succeed where others have failed? Rothfuss must be punished for his impertinence! Hm … I don’t know that I’d label that rant as anti-self-publishing.
