The post I wrote for Author Buzz about the reports that Brexit would be very bad for authors. The post expands on a report published by The Guardian.

Each year, roughly 200,000 books are published in the UK. That’s more than anywhere else in the world. Part of the reason for our success is that roughly a third of UK book sales are to the EU.

Author Buzz, Brexit may be bad for authors

The general argument I make is that Brexit may shrink our market by putting barriers between UK publishers and the EU while granting access to giant US publishing firms to what is left. The result is likely to be fewer signings, smaller bonuses, and lower sales. Not good.
