Oddly I am reminded of the early printings of "W. Shakespeare" including the 1599 collection of 20 sonnets. It was reprinted many times in the 10 years that followed. At least 15 of the sonnets were not by Shakespeare and it took until 1612 for the real authors to get credit.

Publishers have had the upper hand for 400 years. Patreon and similar entities are redefining the relationship between reader and author / journalist.
