Legal Research

Speed to market - publishing 2.0

By Simon Chester

This is slightly off-topic, though I would argue it all goes back to the classic discussion of Wine and the Law. And here is some legal discussion on wine law from Fermentation.

My friend Charles Hodgson of Podictionary fame has just written:

Compare and contrast:

· First book, a year to write, three years to sell, a year and a half to bring to market
· This book, five months to write, eight days to bring to market

The blurbs on Amazon say: “A great read.” -Rod Phillips, author of A Short History of Wine, “Certain to find a wide and grateful readership.” -Anatoly Liberman, blogger The Oxford Etymologist and author of An Analytic Dictionary of English Etymology; “Enlightening, engaging and essential.” -John W. Fischer, author and Associate Professor at The Culinary Institute of America; “Immensely enjoyable to read…well done” -Tom Wark, Fermentation wine blog and originator of American Wine Blog Awards

BTW, I’d rather be at the celebration for the American Wine Blog Awards, than at the Blawggies if simply for the refreshments!
