Hi. I'm W. Town Andrews, Jr. Call me Town. I've been looking for a place to discuss books, audio books, and the new lives of books. In fact I have a new blog called "Books Beyond Print" which is about the new lives of books beyond print. I'm new to blogging too.
I'm also an author (full disclosure) and wish to mention and highlight my own work here. I'll provide some copies for the contests!
So I'll tell more about the blog, and the titles, and of course what I'm reading and not reading, soon.
Town |

Hi, Town -
Welcome to the group. Tell us about your writings and about the new lives of books beyond print - does that mean on the internet or some other way of reading books other than on the printed page? This information age is changing so fast I can't keep up.

Ok, Town, I went to http://www.unheardofbooks.com/
and clicked where it said "To download free sample chapter and more, click HERE."
And then (with some resentment) entered my email address.
And then . . . and then attempted to right click on something to get
the free sample chapters.
And then my Toshiba Windows Vista laptop hung up,
and I found out why the unheard of books are unheard.
Really, does life have to be so difficult? It's not like I was
trying to steal anything.
