    Hi John. Personally, I don't think people like reading online very much. In fact, it is my theory that the art of reading itself, is being reduced to a series of easily comprehensible sound bytes. Sounds pessimistic?

    Hi Jon,

    It does sound pessimistic for a writer like us. Since you point it out, I had had a lingering suspicion that this was already happening. Most publishers now want showy prose and do not care for elaborately created plots and situations.

    Influence of the fast cut cinematic medium?
