Paper v.s. electronic?

In the writing business today, one must consider so many
things in order to be successful; your audience, their gender,
their age, where do they live? The questions are endless,
making the answers sometimes quite evasive.

Although the electronic books such as Kindle have a huge
following, I've discovered that a whole bunch of people
still like to have a physical book in their hand. One that
they can dog ear if they want, put in their back pocket
if they would like, put in a library or stack to pull out
at their convenience.

It seems that the electronic books just aren't as versatile.
Most people over 50 I've surveyed still like the physical
book....they were brought up with that book...and it is
hard to change old habits.

Remember as a kid in school, each week you could order
paperbacks? You would put your order in.. some were
just 50 cents, others 75 cents... then you'd wait anxiously
for those books to come to school... wow... then they
would hand out the book or two you ordered... you would
rush home to read it.. those were great days indeed..
I've found that people are still enchanted with having a
book in their hands... it is magical for sure.

A guy in South Carolina who is editing my new short
story book agrees one hundred percent with me.
And so, this book will be the old paperback style,
about 4 1/2 in. by 7 inches. The font will be a little
bigger for easier reading. It won't be fancy... a few
self drawn images among the 27 stories it will contain.

It is exciting. So we are moving ahead with this little
book I know you will enjoy. As the weeks move on,
we'll post more about it, it's release date and
we'll preview what's inside.  Stay tuned, that feel
of a little book in your pocket will again make
you smile.
