eBook only?

But reading something in print will always be my love. I even print my own books off the computer and read them on paper

Yeah, there's something to be said about reading on paper -- especially after spending a long day staring at the computer screen!

While I certainly don't have a secret window into Ms. Mod's brain (you see what I did there?), Riding the Bullet started out as an e-book in 2000, and ended up in Everything's Eventual, a 2002 collection.

...crossing my fingers, holding a rabbits foot, throwing salt over my left shoulder, wishing on a star, and hoping Mile 81 is released in traditional book form before I die.

As a used bookstore owner, it makes me very happy to read that not everyone is smitten with e-books. I love everything about books - they way they feel, the sound it makes when you turn the pages, the smell of old books, even the odd things that I discover in old books that are traded at the store. You can never be too rich, too thin or have too many books.

I read a lot of eBooks because it's convenient for my work, but there is NOTHING like sitting down with a real, printed book and I will never give them up.

Heck, for certain big books (like the kind SK tends to write), I can't imagine reading them on any screen, no matter how much "like the real page" it might be. Under the Dome or The Stand or IT or 11/22/63 will always be the types of books I want to hold in hardcover and read that way.

Well, it's not in print (yet!), but I just saw an Audiobook listing for MILE 81 on Amazon:
