I think there is a reading revolution starting up and devices that enable portable reading of e-books are what the revolution is made of.
Statistics may prove me wrong when wielded by one of our readers, but my impression is that reading of actual physical books has been on the decline for a long time now. The "tactile pleasure" of holding a book is great but it does not seem to have been enough to hold the formerly reading public. On the other hand I have noticed that people are much more willing to read a finished book with covers, etc., than they are to read a manuscript that contains exactly the same words. Go figure!
In any event, I have ensured that my two novels, "The Butcher's Cleaver," and "Death Piled Hard," (available next month) will be "kindlized" (Sony as well) from the start. The intelligence book "Intelligence: The Human Factor" is not my property andI can't fix that.
