Will you ever buy mostly e-books? (13th annual poll)

November 11, 2019 by Nathan Bransford 2 Comments

It’s that time of year! Has your opinion about e-books changed? Are you still paper or die?

Let’s get these bad boy caveats out of the way:

  • Yes, I understand this isn’t a scientific poll
  • Yes, it’s further unscientific-like to compare between years when my blog readership may have changed
  • Yes, I know you want more poll options because no option here precisely captures your view. Choose the one that’s closest!

Poll below. You may need to click here to see it if you’re reading in a feed reader or via email.

So. What say you?

Need help with your book? I’m available for manuscript edits, query critiques, and coaching!

For my best advice, check out my online classes (NEW!), my guide to writing a novel and my guide to publishing a book.

    I have been for years now. I also mostly check out e-books from the library. It’s so convenient and I don’t have to worry about where to store physical books. I do miss being able to lend people books though.

    Interestingly, my kindergartener’s reading curriculum–which is new to the district this year–relies solely on reading ‘books’ on the computer. It doesn’t use physical books at all. *That* I find strange.

    I agree. Kids need to be taught a love of reading that’s disconnected from playing with digital gadgetry that’s often destructive of growing minds. They need to focus on fixed pictures and words on a page. It’s not good to condition them to always expect animation and sound.
