Have you ever wondered why publishing a book the traditional way takes so long? People are amazed when they find out it takes years, not months, sometimes to get a book out. Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes? Rachelle Gardner, a literary agent at Word Serve Literary Group, posted a blog that addresses this topic. She mentions contracts, lead times, schedules, acquisition process, etc., that take place once a book is signed. Very interesting stuff. See for yourself.
