Cbernard3 asked Jeff Erno:

I get so many recommendations to read Kindle Editions and ebook editions. However I prefer to have a book in my hand and will delete those books from my to-read list. I guess I am not with it as I am 65 years old. Can you advise me? Thanks, Chuck Bernard

Jeff Erno Thanks for the question. I was like you when e-books first emerged. I refused to read them because I wanted to hold the book in my hand. I'm not sure how it happened but I eventually purchased an e-reader and have since gotten used to using it. Now I rarely read print.

All my books are available in print if they are novel-length. There are two from an Australian publisher which have not yet been made available worldwide or even in the U.S. Unfortunately, my novella sized stories are not all available in print. The Men's Room three-book series was recently made available through Extasy Books as a single print edition. But the Tidal Crest merman series is not yet available except for ebook, and the Full Nelson crime detective series is also only in digital format.

I do plan to eventually bundle the young adult novellas (Losers and Chasing My Dream) with a new story I've yet to write and try to release it as a single print book. I guess in a nutshell what I'm saying is that I'm working on getting to a point where everything of mine is available in print for those who prefer it. I have no advice, unfortunately, for how you can get other authors to make print available other than to contact them and let them know your preference. Thank you.
