sharing the same dreams
Jul. 23rd, 2004 09:47 am• You know what I can't do? Stuff I think is stupid just for the irony value.
• I can't stop thinking of the Sex and the City essay where Carrie keeps going over to Big's because he has AC and it ruins their relationship for a while.
• I realize that most publishing companies are simply subsidiaries of the big houses in NYC, but there are quite a few independent houses that still sell widely. My question is, how hard would it be to start one up? What strategy would one use? Because god, would that be a dream situation, running a publishing company with my friends. Maybe that's too ambitious; maybe a PNW version of Vice crossed with Something Awful is more like it. Or just take one of the small publishers in this city and make it bigger, by hiring a couple of editors from Random House or Tor or something. I'd probably need like a million dollars, though, any takers?
