Welcome to Writers and Readers!

The Changing World of Writing and Reading

The way we write and read is changing due to the the Internet. No longer are we restricted to sending our printed manuscripts to publishing houses and waiting for rejection letters. Nor or we, as readers, confined to going to bookstores to find good reading matter. Writers now have a vast new market to explore with POD-Print On Demand publishers, online publishing, personal sites, and more.
