On this episode of the Self-Publishing with ALLi podcast, Dan Holloway reflects on the death of Porter Anderson, longtime editor in chief of Publishing Perspectives and a respected, sharp-witted voice in the book world whose influence reached far into both traditional and indie publishing. Dan shares tributes from colleagues and friends before turning to Spotify’s year-end audiobook trends, where romantic and “spicy” fantasy continue to dominate and darker genres like dystopia and horror are showing new momentum.
