It is a very important consideration. Just for perspective, my scholarship is published by large publishing houses but my fiction by a mid-sized one. The latter doesn't engage bookstores because the return policy is so brutal (30 days!). So it is self-pub authors affected but so many more.

I am watching the British series Rivals, and in episode one, there it is, on the door of a producer, the title that has now become my aspiration: "Head of Drama." 😀. #Rivals #stories #drama
