... Scott Perkins ...
... on self-publishing, ebooks and a changing market

On Sunday I already talked to Scott Perkins, one of the very interesting people I meet on Facebook and immensly enjoy. In his "triple qualification" as author, seminar leader and bookseller, I had questioned him on the subject in the face of the collapse of one of the largest U.S. bookstore chains.

As an author, Scott Perkins is just as interesting to talk to, especially about the "in-topic" of the US-publishing-scene: The changing market and self-publishing.

... on bookselling and a changing market

To describe Scott Perkins is a challenge. He is incredibly versatile (builts masks from leather, is emerging at Renaissance markets as a fool, two weeks later at a Con in steampunk style), and works as a writer and seminar leader at the "TCC Writing & Tutoring Center," a Community Center.

He describes himself as "Optimist. Realist. Cynical idealist." - And all he is. In his "triple qualification" as author, seminar leader and bookseller, we have questioned him on the subject in the face of the collapse of one of the largest U.S. bookstore chains.
