Just one FL woman's ramble about this article:

The landscape for books, comics and other forms of entertainment is changing. Esp. in the last 10-20 years. Some embraced it better than others so in the end they wouldn't become Blockbuster vs Redbox.

What I consider Mid-lister Spring Board Indie Publishers:

Silver Empire: https://silverempire.org/
LMBPN Publishing: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=LMBPN+Publ...
Aethon books: https://amzn.to/3nPInCq

Just to name a few.
Trad Side:

Baen: https://www.baen.com/
DAW: (Which is the one arm of Penguin that still takes chances on some books. But of the 4 that remain, how many are subsidiaries of each other?)
