Un...Congratulations on your upcoming releases, Mae. <BR/><BR/>Until last October, I'd have agreed with you that ebooks will never replace print. But in the wake of the financial meltdown, lots of publishers had more books coming back than going out. A print book on the bookstore shelves may or may not sell. An ebook download is a sold book. No returns. The financial realities may make ebooks not just the wave of the future, but the inevitable wave.EmilyBryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03542349086762747179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3217012316587200736.post-54267554369088079342009-01-02T14:04:00.000-05:002009-01-02T14:04:00.000-05:00Hi Emily,The one book I have available right now i...Hi Emily,<BR/><BR/>The one book I have available right now is an electronic book. My second release..2/04/09 will be an ebook first, in print March 20. My 3th will come out as both ebook and print in April 2009.<BR/><BR/>To be completely honest, I don't think anything is better than the old, print book. Soooo many other folks I've told to and have heard from tell me it just "isn't the same" with an ebook, and I have to agree. Even with a handheld reader, it's not the same as the smell, look, and feel of print. Besides, you can't hardly set ebooks, or the reader, on your shelf and admire your work, can you? Only with print can you do that.<BR/><BR/>Ebooks may well be the wave of the future, and my publisher is an ebook pub. But I think the print should always be here to stay.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
