Wow, this is an incredibly detailed post with lots of knowledge and layers. I'm impressed with the depth! I need to go back through and reread.

Thanks! It helps me to see things in context, so I pieced together my own observations & research with things I learned at the Future of Publishing Mastermind (whoa… overwhelming in the best way) and shook it until things fell into place. ;-)
