Fahrenheit 451 With the growing numbers f young people playing online and using apps on their phones I can see the time when books will be banned as they are in the film Fahrenheit 451 based n the novel by Ray Bradbury . All I hope is I am not around to see the death of literature as we knew it; or perhaps it has happened already. In this world it is hard for an author, such as me, to make a living, the main ingredient needed is not talent or imagination but money.  Several years ago, I wrote an online serial based on the death of books in a world of electronic games, even though the science fiction  serial was free, it had few readers and I stopped writing it after two months.

Science Fiction in the USA

My e-book market I have been asked many times what made me write in the style of an American? The primary factor is that approximately 95% of my e-book sales      https://www.amazon.com/-/e/B007U50BOI   and  https://www.draft2digital.com/book/62636   are in the  USA . The two highest compliments I have been given are I think like a Jew,     https://hereiamattheedgeblogspotcouk.wordpress.com/2017/11/22/compliments-come-in-many-forms/   and write like an American    https://hereiamattheedgeblogspotcouk.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/more-compliments/ .
