I've noticed a trend. Actually, I've been noticing a trend, but now, I'm starting to feel the crunch of it. My genre space is shrinking. That is to say, at the bookstore, the amount of shelf space dedicated to SF & F is shrinking. I find it odd, in light of the fact that seating is being reduced in bookstores across the country (Notably Borders), that the shelf space for our genre is being reduced.
I don't have answers, and I know I'm working from observations, not hard data. Two points might determine a line, but can hardly be said to describe a trend. No, I'm not really in a panic, just in a mode to vent. But underneath that, I'm wondering, am I the only one noticing? Is it actually happening? Or am I being chicken little?
