» Grandma07 - Publishing After Frey


Barb-What do you think - will the Frey debate change any guidelines publishers use to classify and promote their products?

In response to Publishing After Frey posted by Grandma07:
This is a great question!

Yes the whole Frey sitation has already affected publishing. Books that might have been accepted as memoirs are being questioned, and some are being published as fiction as a result.

It is OK to fictionalize your life, but it is not OK to publish it as a nonfiction book or call it a memoir.

What do you think about the plagiarism allegations?
