/lit/ - Literature

Why doesn't /lit/ create its own publishing house?

I'm not talking about meme-lit like Tundra, but since geographical location is irrelevant due to the internet, and because the internet has its own culture (or maybe subculture(s)) who don't care where a writer is from, why don't we take submissions from /lit/ (not sure how we'd prevent outsiders from coming here)?

We could have a policy where the writers and the editors are all forced to be anonymous. Editing would have to be high-standard, and maybe the amount each volunteer editor who signs up for any given book will receive a percentage of the prospective royalties based on the amount of work they did on it.


I honestly think this is a good idea, but I'd like to hear your thoughts.
