My publishers belong to Hachette Livre UK, which represents 17% of Britain's publishing industry. For a long time I've been worrying about Hachette's paper buying. When I plucked up the courage to investigate, I learned that my publishers are 'the rogues of the industry', according to Greenpeace UK. Now, I'm not a big name and my novels, to date, have sold poorly. In order to put real pressure on Hachette Livre UK to move towards FSC and recycled paper, I have written to about 30 major authors on their various lists. You can find out more here, on my blog: http://bounded-in-a-nutshell.blogspot.com/2007/04/paper-tigers.html and here, the original posting on the subject: http://bounded-in-a-nutshell.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html So far, I've had a limited response. But two of the UK's biggest selling authors have told me that they have made it a contractual obligation on Hachette to print their books, henceforth, on FSC accredited paper. Which goes to prove the effectiveness of pester power. I’m a novelist living in Scotland. My publishers belong to Hachette Livre UK, which represents 17% of Britain’s publishing industry.
