BOOK PUBLISHING THREAD, 3 Most Publishers make $ from the First Wave, with increasingly lower quality paper that degrades w/time. Their staff isn't even equipped for the 3rd Wave as no credits/promotions beyond the first/2nd year when the book is attributed to a specific editor — PolitiTweet.org

BOOK PUBLISHING THREAD, 2 Then they move on to the next book & books go to low margin paperback & eventually die. 2nd Wave: Few books survive, only if they have #Lindy attributes, & or if some academic conversation props them up. Third Wave: One in 1,000 -10,000 makes it. — PolitiTweet.org

BOOK PUBLISHING THREAD, 4 I am only interested in the 3rd wave (FBR, INCERTO-1, is ~20 y old); I am in a different business. I shd avoid the First Wave buyer, who doesn't count long term. They rely on book reviewers (not time), e.g. that BSVendor @EasterbrookG for the NYT. — PolitiTweet.org
