People rarely write books that are that far out, so it might be interesting to try to write one, but no one will want to read it.
At San Jose State I got very interested in the work of Stephen Wolfram, who wrote a pretty famous book called A New Kind of Science.
Selling a book or story has never become absolutely automatic for me.
In any case, A New Kind of Science is a wonderful book, and I'm still absorbing its teachings.
At present, however, I don't think the Net is a very good medium for books, books should really be inexpensive lightweight paperbacks you can bang around.
I like a book better if I can't predict what's going to happen.
Electronic distribution is more of a fall-back strategy for putting out a book that isn't deemed profitable enough to print. You hardly make any money publishing an electronic book.
