SPECIAL EPISODE: The Grim World Predatory Publishers (ft. James MacDonald)
Manage episode 428557181 series 3457448
Ever heard the phrase "Money flows to the author"? James "Jim" MacDonald is the one who coined it.
Jim is a long-time author and anti-vanity press advocate who, along with many others, has dedicated years of his life to investigating predatory publishers and teaching new authors to protect themselves. Today, he joins us in this Special Episode to share his experiences and knowledge on the rise of these organisations and how they operate.
This episode differs from our usual because Jim is very much the focus, with Scott and Sunyi choosing to take a backseat. We hope that this episode will be illuminating and helpful to newer authors who are starting to find their feet in this murky industry. This is a topic which is close to our hearts, and on which we feel strongly about.
