Youtube has started pitching me videos from indie SF author Jon Del Arroz
from time to time. I usually don't have the patience to listen all the
way through a video essay (these things should be text on Usenet!)
but I get enough to see that the guy has a definite point of view which
will not be universally appreciated. That said, he has had a couple of
videos on the big 3 magazines lately and apparently there is a lot of
controversy around AI cover art and now changes to author contract terms.
The man is a troll, and prone to spurious lawsuits and attempts to control
the Hugo awards. This is a point of view few here are likely to appreciate.
But it is true that short fiction is less popular, and I think that is
because it is so much easier to sell a long format work than it used to be.
