I disagree to a point. There are millions of self published books sitting in a pile, with hundreds added every day. All those authors are essentially making nothing. Even if the greatest novels ever written are in there, nobody will ever find them. There’s good and bad about publication, but I’d still rather work in conjunction with a publisher and get my work out there. At it’s most basic, a publisher is being paid to read through the pile of million books and pick out the best ones. It’s an admirable thing.

I agree about the money laundering though. It’s a pay check for working with the criminals. Just like Go Fund Me’s for fake victims.
