Cool, and true Mrs. Colella and about what you said that we need paper, let me give you an example of my own, suppose you're siting on a bench, reading a story on your ipad or cell-phone, what if you accidently dropped your ipad or phone on the ground and it broke, when if you drop a book, it won't broke, same as if your phone gets dead while you were reading a story in it, book can't be dead because they doesn't have any battery to it, so we need paper. :)

And about the future of e-books, I think it can evolve, I have a new look/ vision for e-books, characters can have their who separate page by a link attached to their names in which the whole information of the character could be told, it will be easier for the read to memorize who the character is and what is back-story is.

Second thing should be (I hope someone hasn't done this either) color paper. It could be any image or color background of the content of the written story. You go trough some websites and see that some of those are colored backgrounds and the contents are written in various colors, example is my website, I have a black background with different colored contents on every page of it.

I've seen the colored background on website text, but don't think I've encountered it in any of the ebooks I have on my Kindle bookshelf. Interesting idea. ')

Thank you very much Madam. :)
That's what I am trying to produce.

Have a point there, and very good one.

I think they both are great in their own way, I found E-books more easy because you can read any book you want, I mean for instance, you're at some place and you feel like reading a book, where are you going to get one? Well, you got your cell-phone, so it means you got lots of books to read.

You can’t carry twenty books in your hands, but you can carry your cell-phone which gives you millions of e-books in your hand. But when it comes to reading, some say that they enjoy real book more than e-books, they like the feel of hard cover and real paper.

And I agree with Aquilla, with real books, you can set up your collection of your favorite books, you can’t do that with e-books, you’ll need lot of cell-phone or tablets to do that, Hahaha.

e books r better than real books for these reasons
1. easy to access anywhere everywhere
2. easy to carry cause it will be in ur cell or kindle or tab
3. u can also collect ur fav as in save them or put a book mark
4. ur ebook pages don't tear as in u can read it after like 20 years and the book is not delicate
5. easy to save as in modem or pd
6. less space cover a lot of books
7. u can share copies with ur frnds

A great story is realistic and not rushed. You know you could have a great cover but once I read I start regretting it. A great story builds and takes you on a journey,helps you see the sights and enjoy them. Finally,you safely reach you destination, the end,safely.

A story arc that grabs the readers' attention right on the first page, follows through with logic, action, and goal, and wraps up by concluding all the elements that need to be concluded. But just as important is proper spelling, grammar, and formatting. A book with horrible spelling, atrocious grammar, and that's written with little or no punctuation as one long paragraph is impossible to read, regardless of how great the idea for the story is.

Timing also matters, or pacing of the story line. Give too much away at the beginning and there's no where to go. Make it too cryptic, and the ending becomes impossible to accept. The action and the dialogue need to balance each other out, and it shouldn't read like a text book.

There are other things, too, but I'd run out of room in this text box, lol. Those things are the basics, though.

When the author puts emotion into the story, or talks about something in the story from life experience. When the author uses very descriptive words, and also leaves them in suspension at the end of every, or almost every chapter.

im not as such a writer but i like writing quotes and thoughts i wrote a book or two when i was little but i don't know y i stopped may be becoz of study or something now im writing but i don't have that much time to complete and continue so i just read books

My first was a poem that I wrote for my crush. It was pretty good, if I do say so myself,I was 13 or 14 I think. It was impulsive but the words had just flowed truthfully. Oh,and it rhymed. I was embarrassed but regretted nothing. It was then that I knew. I wrote others,not to him,unfortunately he acted like nothing had happened,so I wrote others for my friends and some to comfort me. Later I wrote a book. That's the history.

I was in the fifth grade. The day was overcast and cold. I was in the mood for a story to suit the weather that also had a lot of adventure in it. Went to the library. Nothing. All the ones that fit my requirements I'd already read. So...I went home and wrote it myself. It was about a family with 12 kids (hey, I grew up in a Catholic neighborhood, so that didn't seem unusual to me, lol). The youngest one, who I named Eric, was for some reason highly disliked by his brothers, even though his sisters were sorta okay with him. He didn't understand their animosity. Anyhow, their parents had just died in a car accident, and they inherited the house, which was a huge mansion their dad had bought to accommodate all those kids (what was I thinking? Sheesh). The oldest brother, who was of course in charge, told Eric he had to live in the basement. So down into the bowels of the house he goes, only to discover, in the back of a closet, a curtain covering one wall. He pulls it aside and finds a door, which leads into a beautiful, warm, richly-furnished house UNDER the one his family was living in. And because there were lit candles, he knew someone was - and had been - living there already. The rest of the story is about his adventures there, what he discovers about his origins, and how he keeps the secret, mwah-ha-ha! 'D

Hmm....romance esp. a tearjerker. I love the emotions an they help me when I feel stressed because they drain me emotionally. Kind of like a form of therapy. They help me understand the choices people make and the reasons. I am able to think beyond my nose, makes me open minded. :-)

Historical action/adventure, epic fantasy, science fiction, humor, mystery...pretty much everything except standard romance novels and do-it-yourself or self-help non-fiction.

I like romance but I honestly don't care what type of book
