For a while it will continue to unrelated story and the economy.
Speaking of why, new work currently writing in has approached the climax, put the data that is handled towards the home page, that's always the way write a comment, it is because indeed become spoilers. Actually, I have another great deal put the spoilers of data (laughs
As you know, I was let me writer debut from Tozu-sha's in June of last year, it is half - baked writer. However, (it's not two) good luck to the blessed to write the three work in the past year, also have three companies and acquaintance publisher.
And you know the thing is, the publishing industry is horribly industry was outdated, is that.
First of all, between publishers and booksellers, there is the presence of the publishing agency company that enshrined the throat-do. Moreover, this publication agency is daily sales, several companies only without such Tohan, have each boasts a huge scale.
The number of bookstores in Japan is about the number of stars, among other publishers several hundred companies the number of, I only a few companies publishing agency to mediate between. I wonder.
When incidentally write, for example major shareholder of Tohan is Kodansha, Shogakukan, Shueisha, Kadokawa Shoten, Gakken, only major publishers such as such as Shinchosha. Hmmm, I feel that. Why Speaking of whether a "Hmmm", it is truly better publishers of books of shareholders, than those of other publishers, Na will inevitably be priority during the agency, and because I think.
In addition, despite the books specific number of ISBN is to book, it is not POS Gahotonndo use. (Especially small bookstore in the city, almost does not have a POS) major bookstores such as truly Kinokuniya bookstore, are equipped with POS, what books were sold many books, has been nationally management. (Of course, such as the online system of the bookstore amazon), however, it is not a major speaking the number of bookstores, is overwhelmingly better of small bookstores that do not have a POS.
If you say and what you want to say, products that books What books are selling or at the moment, it is that it is it is hard goods very grasp. Of course, the publication number has publishers to understand perfectly, how much to buy the the final user, it may not be known until the return is carried out to the poor. Publishers and reluctantly, to buy the POS data such as Tohan and Kinokuniya, it seems to manage the selling points.
This sale points, since such should be the criteria of when to pay royalties to the author, is very important information, but the system is of such remains and old-fashioned. Therefore, the count of sales points of when to pay royalties by publishers have different policies.
For example, some publishers, and raking the data, and to pay royalties by "guess" the number that is sold, another publisher minute that was "published", it will pay royalties. When the latter publishers say how grateful for the author, in fact it is not really. In the latter case of publishers, publishing, that is because it must pay the printing was only minute royalties, of course the first edition number and reprint number of extensive studies, it is not choice but the narrowed down. As a result, it undeniable possibility that opportunity loss has occurred.
Also, put of force to the book promotion was also published, it comes changed by the publisher.
Frankly, it is more of the monthly publication number is small publishers, the book promotion of new writers us focus. When the publication number is large, it is no longer forced to focus resources on those of selling, new work that may be those of the mountain with those of the sea, also ad not even hit case there quite common.
But the book sold, the advertising, promotion is required. And advertising is struck, it must be well sales are. It has just become a dilemma of the chicken and the egg.
If you say why endlessly write been chosen story of the publishing industry, what in this way officials have complained prone industry, and because they thought that rolling business opportunities. The fact that officials have a complaint, should be an ideal system that is "Do not say you were doing", it is that is "needs".
If you can capture the needs, it would be in business, the author while migratory the publishing industry as egg writer, we continue thinking that various and cunning.
