I was interested to hear on Radio 4 this morning Jeffrey Archer discuss his book "Cain and Abel" which he has re-written after 30 years. A Professor of English literature was asked to comment and he said that in future with the introduction of electronic books we are going to be seeing a lot more of this taking place.
He said:"Writing will become a much more fluid process with books changing all the time."
Well, this is what I am discovering now for more information keeps coming in which could so easily be incorporated into "The Children of Craig-y-nos" if it was an e-book instead of a printed book.
But the fact is though that we are still of a generation that likes to hold a book in our hands.
I suspect the youngsters of today will have no such inhibitions and will take to screen reading of books like the proverbial ducks to water...
