Of course, artists are always ahead of gatekeepers. That\u2019s the way it works\u2014artists innovate. But in order to fulfill your promise as an editor, agent, publisher or reviewer, you have to be a person who\u2019s embracing the new and looking to elevate what is not yet known. And unfortunately, there\u2019s not a discussion among publishing professionals about enhancing this aspect of people\u2019s responsibilities. In fact, it goes the other way.
