Quotes by Mark Stone (?)

“If you don't take your work seriously enough for proper editing, why should anyone take your book seriously enough to buy?”

“For the love of all that can be pretty about books, please please please put a decent cover on that thing.”

“Once there were gatekeepers to publishing who missed quite a few great books. Then came the day when there were no gatekeepers. Now's the day when we need a middle ground to protect the readers. That day is coming in the way of Reader/Author, a place where readers and authors are more than just buyers and sellers.”
