Jaimie, I think that potenatilly this will have a place.... for now we are very early up in beta stages to speak about steemit bieng the place for publishing oneself.

There are no instruments to support all authors here.

As steemit strives to be a society, it will eventually MUST have a seperate chanell for publishing, where people would have the time, space and the resource to check out others work and decide what is popular and what isnt.

I am an old romanticist deep inside, and for me nothing will ever replace that smell of a real page =)
