The Southwest  Florida Reading Festival was a well attended and well organized event. There were plenty of people who loved reading whom I and my wife enjoyed meeting. I felt  privileged to be signing copies of my books and answering their questions.  We had a good time. There were people seeking audio and e-books. My latest novel is neither at this point. However, there are still many who love to pick up and possess that tangible version ( especially if the cover is cool ). That is why  I believe there will always be brick and mortar stores and hard copies.  For all those whom I recently met at the show, it was my pleasure and thank you.       Jim
