I think I wanted to mention that everyone in the publishing industry will admit that the industry is experiencing a period of great change, perhaps the most important period of change since mass printing became possible. The way everyone in the world processes information is changing, so a story set in an industry at the center of this change, as long as the story also had compelling characters, sounds like one with universal appeal. Not to mention an exciting tale too. Man, if I could remember what I had said… brilliance is never so brilliant the second time around.
