Veronica Roth, author of ‘DIVERGENT’ (Goodreads’ Favorite Books of 2011), gives a rare insight in how books get published:
I think it’s important to put aside a somewhat romanticized view of book writing in which it’s just the author and the pages and sometimes the editor. And the reason I think it’s important is that there are so many people involved in this process— people who work so hard, and who are really indispensable.
