Hosted on Cynthia Leitich Smith's indispensable Cynsations website, Lindsey Lane dives into the reality of books going out of print in this four-part series.
Part One dives into some publishing numbers and the culling of books from library collections. The bottom line, when going out of print happens to your book, is that it shouldn't be a surprise.
As Lindsey writes, a book going out of print “is part [of] its life cycle.”
Check out the whole series as it publishes on Cynsations. Well-worth reading.
