Speakout: Self-publishing rancor is out of place
By Judith Briles, December 22, 2003
Rocky
Mountain News books editor Patti Thorn's Grinch column of Dec. 13,
"No. 1 on editor's wish list: help!," earns coal for her stocking -

a few years out-of-date. Granted, there are lots of books published

self-publishers - and from New York houses. To throw all
self-published books into the trash heap is irresponsible and
downright ignorant.
