It will be a new industry,【3】not on bestsellers but on niche【4】. Maybe Grisham isn’t a Lulu customer【5】, but writer John Edgar Wideman is. Wideman’s latest【6】of short stories, Briefs, came out from Lulu this spring. In a traditional paperback publishing【7】, the author keeps a mere 8 to 9 percent of【8】.
