Write Every Day: Day 27

[the_siobhan]

I live in a pretty small house with two other adults and so storage space is always at a premium. A few years ago I got a Kindle and started converting some of my collection to electronic copies and purging the paper copies. Most of my purchases of new books now are digital.

In ye olden tymes when I was in college, if I wanted to get rid of a stack of books there were several used book stores in town. None of them are in business any more, so this is my current solution. The above is a picture of the Little Free Library on my front lawn. There are dozens of them in this neighbourhood and I am always finding new authors to check out.

Not everything new I buy is digital mind you, nor have I gotten rid of all my hard copies. I still only buy comics in hardcopy. I have some gorgeous pictures books and signed copies that I want to keep. And you will pry my Darwath Trilogy books out of my cold dead hands.

What do you do with old books? Is there still a currency in used books where you live? Do you love or hate e-readers?

I'd look into that if I had any idea how to download anything onto this stupid device. It won't even let me load my internet security!

I've made a note of the name, just in case anyone can explain to me how to get stuff like that. This mini laptop has the worst software ever devised. Even posting was messed up and took twice as long as it should have.

Thanks, but I'm disappointed because it's below what I needed to write. I have three challenges to write for and two days to do it.

Forgot to say I love the Darwath Trilogy, and quite a few of Hambly's other books too.

I have slightly redeemed myself with a triple drabble written on my old, dying laptop. At least that has MS Works on it and I can use that.
