That is a seriously interesting and well researched piece @Brian Clegg - I am now following Emma Darwin on Twitter as a result.

One very worrying point in her article is about the 'vanishing' writers and their contracts. It is horrible to imagine a prospect where after years of struggle a writer gets an agent like @AgentPete , a publisher, a contract only then for it all to be taken away by a 'vanishing' contract with two or three years. What happens to those poor souls after their contract is withdrawn? What a horrible prospect. As John Cleese says in Clockwise, 'The despair I can take, it's the hope...'
 
Great piece- confirms that it's a difficult path, not strewn with roses. Fun so far though...
