This companion blog to www.rightreading.com explores the full gamut of print and electronic publication, from conception, research, and editing through design, typesetting, and image preparation, through paper, print, and pixel on to marketing and sales. It seeks to integrate the editorial and design functions, which too seldom communicate effectively. Books, authors, translation, and reviewing are also covered.
