I was just can't seem to hold myself back when it comes to this topic. The rampant exploitation by the publishing industry these days is upsetting.
I'd like to be happy that the fantasy genre is taking in readers at a younger age now. I mean, I write fantasy (not of the urban persuasion, though) and I won't argue with a larger audience.
But on the otherhand, my sense of decency makes me disappointed that this sort of thing is happening anyway.
I certainly wouldn't be a better person if I sold my integrity off to the highest bidder, but I'd be a whole lot less confused.
