Craig says:
"I believe ebook publishing is the way of the future (as shown by Steven King's "Riding the Bullet"), though I believe there will always be a place for traditional publishing with paper books. People will always love holding a real book out in the sun for their holiday reading. I just believe electronic-publishing is way cheaper and immediate compared to "hard copy" publishing. Thus it has many benefits for the reading consumer, as well as talented new authors, who may find great difficulty in getting their work accepted by traditional publishing houses- especially the well-known ones who rarely take on new authors in the current harsh publishing environment.
In addition, things are moving so fast with reading aids in electronic publishing. New technology is constantly developing the hand-held reader, so soon you may be able to down-load novels at the beach.
May the two forms of publishing work in tandem in the future, to the benefit of the consumer.
In time, all of Craig Lock's 17 books will be available both electronically, as well as in paper copies.
