Effin' Birds: Statement on Unbound
John Mitchison, Unbound’s publisher, posted a heartfelt apology yesterday, announcing that he was stepping away from the business because authors are not getting their money. I feel a lot of empathy for John, because he, too, lost his dream to Unbound’s financial mismanagement. But the act of destroying a creative person’s confidence to hide the company’s monetary losses is unforgivable.
It took me two years to get over the feeling of rejection that came from a book that, it turned out, was successful and should have had a second printing.
