I just thought I'd take a break from publishing for a while.
Max Cannon

I lived through a classic publishing story. My editor was fired a month before the book came out. The editor who took it over already had a full plate. It was never advertised. We didn't get reviewed in any major outlets.
Anita Diament

I maintain an ongoing survey of Internet Publishing and self publishing, so that it is now possible for any writer with a book to get it published at nominal cost or free, and to have it on sale at booksellers like Amazon.com.
Piers Anthony

I should have my own publishing companies.
Solomon Burke

I spoke to my agent and learned that a Hollywood scout had seen my proposal in one of the publishing houses, and had faxed it to Hollywood, where it was generating a lot of interest.
Laura Hillenbrand

I started working and publishing in price theory by 1938.
George Stigler

I think Henry Miller has had huge influence not because he wrote about sex, but because the memoir or the nonfiction novel has become such a monumental force in American publishing, if not in literature.
Leslie Fiedler

I took the process of doing as much myself as I could like a duck to water. I set up my own label and publishing, etc, and it was a fun learning curve two decades ago.
David Knopfler

I used to be with a publishing house called Roosevelt Music. A gentleman there told me he had seen Peggy Lee perform Fever in Las Vegas and I found out later she wanted to record it.
Otis Blackwell

I was publishing when I was 20, 21. And it really never stopped.
Daniel Berrigan

I worked for a publishing company in Hollywood.
Mac Davis

I wouldn't encourage new writers to start off publishing through electronic media... it still isn't wide enough for the readership they would need to get a good start.
Anne McCaffrey

I wrote and produced millions and millions of selling records, so my publishing company alone was worth millions of dollars. I didn't have to work anymore in life because when the rappers started sampling... I'm the most sampled artist in history.
Rick James

I've been here 21 years, and I literally did walk up and down Music Row trying to break into the business. I felt very free to go into any publishing company.
Steven Curtis Chapman

I've been willing to go for years without publishing. That's been my career.
Marguerite Young

I've never seen a worse situation than that of young writers in the United States. The publishing business in North America is so commercialized.
Manuel Puig

If it weren't for received ideas, the publishing industry wouldn't have any ideas at all.
Donald E. Westlake

If you have a song that you think sounds like another song you should contact the publishing company and say I have a song here, let's cut a deal that lets everyone walk away feeling good.
Wayne Coyne

If you look at the publishers I've worked with, generally, they're a great bunch. Creation is unlike any other publishing house you can think of. The people I've worked with have integrity and intelligence and, almost always, less money than ideas.
Peter Sotos

If you wrote a novel in South Africa which didn't concern the central issues, it wouldn't be worth publishing.
Alan Paton
