But, most surprising to me were the numbers spent on government/taxes. In 1967, over 18% of income went to government through fees and taxes. By 2007, that had dropped to 13.2% – a decrease of over 25%. So… in real dollar terms, government is costing us less of our income today than it did forty years ago. Somehow… this message hasn’t gotten across to anyone.
. . .
On the other hand, the percentage of our spending going to food and drink has dropped by 40%, even though proportion spent at restaurants has increased by 75%. And the percentage we spend on clothing has dropped by more than 35%, no surprise to me, given the way most people look in public.
. . .
But it’s equally important for new readers to learn about the books already out there.

Modesitt, Jr. – The Official Website LATEST NEWS & UPDATES New World BluesFebruary 29, 2012 Today, in at least partial celebration of Leap Day, Tor.com has published a short story of mine, “New World Blues,” as part of the Palencar Project. To read the story, absolutely free, just go to the Tor.com site and page down. The story was written based on the artwork of John Jude Palencar, and each Wednesday for the next four weeks, Tor.com will publish a story by a different author based on the same illustration.

Brave New [Publishing] WorldMarch 23, 2012 A recent internet review of Empress of Eternity claimed that it was “the least inspiring” of any of my recent books. I cringed when I read those words, not because the reviewer didn’t like the book – Empress tends to polarize readers; they either like it or hate it, and I understand that – by what the “reviewer” wrote wasn’t what he meant to sat. The book was inspired. I had to be inspired to write such an intricate and involved weaving of timelines across millions of years and make it all come together.
. . .
Over the years, I’ve had reader after reader tell me that they buy books from certain publishers because they know exactly what they’re getting and what the quality is.

And if no publisher will take on a book? Then e-publish it! List it for sale on Amazon, and Jeff Bezos will be happy to try to sell it and take his cut. It costs him next to nothing. List it for $1.99 or even $.99, and maybe it will become a Kindle bestseller. But does that tell any reader whether it’s any good?
. . .
In a nutshell, this is a small example of one problem with the whole gamut of internet publishing, reviewing, and commentary. Too many people are using words and grammatical constructions, not to mention facts, that they don’t understand… and setting themselves up as authorities. All it takes is some eye-catching graphics, a catchy and/or pretentious title and… voila! Another sage is born.
. . .
These questions are very relevant, especially in the case of the decline of paperback sales. Before the advent of ebooks and the subsequent widespread piracy – and it’s everywhere – a reader had to get a hold of a physical book, and that physical book had to be paid for, and that counted in sales.
. . .
There are all too many good writers who have not been that fortunate and who are not good web-and-internet promoters… and their books no longer see print… or much in the way of new readers even when e-published. In essence, they’ve been pushed out by cheap and usually inferior works by writers who aren’t as good in writing but who are far more effective at promotion… by a class of works that might be called “internet penny dreadfuls” [mixing anachronism and technology, so to speak].
. . .
In my case, this is particularly relevant, because many of my books are so complex that they develop slowly. All you have to do is look at all the reviews to see that.
. . .
Nor does any author whose books are issued by a major publisher.

L.E. Modesitt, Jr. – Imager – interview : Boomtron.com

You bring up a really great point about fantasy writers seeming uncomfortable with the notion of technology.
. . .
I’d like to think that does not reflect a scholastic deficiency but the fact that it’s easier to pick up concepts when they’re part of a story…but, these days, I’m not so sure that politics and economics aren’t getting short shrift in schools as well.
. . .
It wasn’t part of my HS education at all, and in college I was exposed to that information because I sought it out–it would have been fairly easy for me to avoid.

A twenty-year trade paperback commemorative edition of The Magic of Recluce will be out in June, and the fourth book of The Imager Portfolio, Scholar, will be out this coming fall, most likely in November. I’ve recently turned in the fifth Imager book, tentatively entitled Princeps, and I’m currently working on the sixth one.
. . .
Also, for some people, technology has moved from being the hope of the future to a noose that tethers them to their job. I doubt that it’s exactly coincidence that, as technology has invaded the workplace and the home, the sale of fantasy has increased and the sale and the writing of science fiction has decreased.

Imager's Intrigue: The Third Book of the Imager Portfolio - L. E ...

Modesitt explores the relative merits of capitalism, free-trade, benevolent monarchies, the military industrial complex and tax law.
. . .
Not to say that a book of intrigue is a bad thing, but it is a significant departure from the rhythm established in the prior two books.
. . .
I'll give Modesitt the benefit of the doubt and assume that he was trying to convey that the structure of Rhenn's days are routine (wake up, exercise, read reports while taking hack to work...), but enough already.
. . .
In fact, the largest action sequence in the story doesn't even involve (directly) Rennn.
. . .
Imager's Intrigue, the third book in his Imager's trilogy, is typical.
. . .
I did not find that it captivated my interest as much as the other books.
