Writing Machines
so, the chick digs electronic books ... apart from really annoying me with her life's story, this document proposes a life for books in a digital form. i suppose it's inevitable, as the children of the (digital) revolution grow up with no experience of reading old fashioned paper books, that electronic books will begin to take over. however, i suspect that the move to the digital form will not encourage better plot lines, rather like the move to the digital form in the movie world has in most cases meant a lesser focus on the story and a greater one on the FX.

interesting (and unfortunately true!) point...future assigned posts will need some more substantial analysis to get full credit. (it's fine that you're annoyed by her life's story, but why do you think she included it? what purpose does it serve? how could she have fulfilled that purpose better?)
