Genuine question for - with the rise of AI generated everything, is it now possible to be published by an actual publisher? I'd heard it was virtually impossible before AI but presumably they're now inundated by manuscripts that are either part or fully AI creations. I ask because I always assumed I'd write my great novel one day, but it seems vanishingly unlikely now. I have 2 brothers who's father was a successful author, although he had his foot in the door via being a reporter (who brought down Concorde and was the only person ever allowed to interview/write a book about Pablo Escobar), so was already semi-famous and had contacts. I met a published author the other week, but she's a proof-reader for Penguin books, so also has a foot in the door. I assume that if you write something you're happy with, you no longer just send it to publishers and hope they read? Interested to know if anyone has had any success with this or if everyone self-publishes now.

Ach, sieh an. Eine Kollegin, mit der ich ganz früher bei Medizinübersetzungen gerne zusammengearbeitet habe, und die seit Jahren hauptsächlich für Indie-Verlage Literatur übersetzt, hat einen Ratgeber für Übersetzende von Self-Publishing-Literatur geschrieben.

Zum finde ich es immer spannend zurückzuschauen,wie wir uns die Zukunft ausmalten. 2012 schrieb ich dieses für die @bpb über die des Buchs: https://www.bpb.de/shop/zeitschriften/apuz/145372/in-der-dunklen-hoehle-zur-zukunft-des-buches-essay/
Der damals völlig irrwitzige Einstieg ... ICH kann nix dafür dass heute und Bücher halluzinieren! ICH war's nicht!!! 🤡 Ich wurde damals in der Branche übrigens ausgelacht, weil ich an und glaubte und Fragen nach Ressourcen/Energie stellte.

The biggest obstacle between writers and readers has always been publishing.

Lately their stranglehold on distribution through bookstores has been bypassed by upstarts like Amazon, Draft2Digital, and the authors who learned that cutting out the middlemen meant they didn't need to sell 100,000 units to make a living.

A few people still make the most, but Amazon's infinite shelves can, at least, make every book available.
