I have E-book Fever (or why I thank the Kindle)

I have e-book fever.
I’m buying them, downloading them,
Searching for them, collecting them.
I collect them on the Kindle,
Mainly those that sell for – FREE!

I have e-book fever.
I’m creating them, uploading them,
I’m selling them and giving them away,
Promoting them through blogs,
Through multiple Twitter accounts,
Even through some Facebook pages- Argh!
Facebook! The fever made me delirious!

I have three books on the go –
And I mean, that I’m promoting.
There are also more I’m writing
And more that I’m planning to write.

Then there’s the books I am reading:
One, I paid for (90 pence) but all the others were free –
No wonder I am collecting them!
There’s one about being productive
(E-productive, that is);
There’s one about managing stress;
There’s one which helps organise meetings;
One about germs;
One about the brain;
One about…Something or other, it seemed essential to have it once…
Oh, and a crime novel, of course.

I blame the Kindle.
Or, to be fair,
I thank the Kindle.
For I can have many books on the go and not hurt my back;
I thank the Kindle,
For I can feed my random mind without going bankrupt;
I thank the Kindle, for it has helped me dig out much of my written word and set it free!

I have e-book fever, but I also have one thing to confess…

Over the last week, I bought five books…
And they were all in print.
This is how lucky I am –
Two viruses at once.
