A Lot Of People Are Unsatisfied At Work

Shocking news that will no doubt cause you to stand up and go “I should sit back down this is no surprise.”

According to a Gallup study, only 30% of people feel engaged at work, and of the 70% some people are pretty discontented. Management is a big issue.

I know none of us are surprised, but it’s worth a read to get the fine details.  I’m curious as to what this disconnect is going to do long-term if it’s not addressed.  I don’t see it improving or staying stable, I see people getting more bitter.

More Amazon Licensed Fanfic Coming

Well it looks like Amazon started something (which Amazon is in the habit of doing), and more license-holders have signed on to their licensed fanfic plan.

Specifically they added Valiant Entertainment, which does not surprise me as Valiant has a fascinating history of ups, downs, morphing, and experiments.

What also is intriguing is this is fiction on comic properties – will Amazon be open to fancomics at some point?

How interesting is this?  Well, I tagged my calendar to help us track what’s up here.  In the areas of licensing, publishing, writing careers, and more this is going to get pretty interesting.
