Excellent round up on Publishing Houses and their imprints

In a multi part series, Sarah Weinman, crime fiction writer and columnist and former editor at Media Bistro, is doing a fascinating job examining publishing houses and their imprints, analyzing which work and possibly why not, and which do not.

She has a number of factual errors in the post on Macmillan (the only one I can really comment on publically, that Bloomsbury is a Macmillan imprint, when it's an entirely separate company). I'll be interested to see what she comes up with for other companies where I've worked, but I can't really give her much credibility.

I give her credibility points because her analyzes of the imprint problems seem right on. It's hard to keep track of the independence of various imprints from the outside.
