Amazon Signs Up Authors, Writing Publishers Out of Deal
Published: October 16, 2011
SEATTLE — Amazon.com has taught readers that they do not need bookstores. Now it is encouraging writers to cast aside their publishers.
Amazon will publish 122 books this fall in an array of genres, in both
physical and e-book form. It is a striking acceleration of the
retailer’s fledging publishing program that will place Amazon squarely
in competition with the New York houses that are also its most prominent
suppliers.
