Interview with Pat Walsh, Author of “78 Reasons why your book may never be published and 14 Reasons why it just Might”

This interview on SlushPile.net is a fitting one for what we’re doing here on Literary Ashland.

Pat Walsh, a San Francisco publisher, has just released his book on the difficulty of getting published.

In addition to instructions on how to avoid the pitfalls of the publishing world, Walsh also brushes up on some of the problems in the publishing world, including bad business models and possible political fall out from publishing decisions.

The interview is a great read, though a little short for my taste.  At the very least I look forward to ordering his book.

If possible, I’d like to interview Mr. Walsh on how he got into the publishing world.  I’ve heard that it’s a very interesting story.

Enjoy.
