LUDDITE LITERATURE
I resisted the email, technology world that cropped at the end of my coaching, teaching career.
We moved to the beach just before winter. I had never cut on my college issued computer. High school typing class was in 1956. Health issues, injuries, age, weather chipped away at my physicality.
I began to “hobby write “. Self-Publishing was possible and I waded in.
Any old person will tell you of the “nightmare of the new age”. Even now.
My seven “books” and 700 blog articles attest to one virtue–VOLUME. And while the process has been a retirement hobby, I haven’t changed my name to Shakes Parham.
Vanity has caused me to wonder “ is it any good ?”
In toto it is a jumbled mess. At 85 years and “ circling the drain “, finding out its worth is beyond me.
Here is a thought. With the galloping advances, will there be a way to edit out the good parts?
There are bigger questions:
Is there is a large number of people like me, who given self publishing, produced some unique period ( possible self publishing to AI editing ) worthwhile contributions?
- Will an advanced editing tool be developed to glean items of value from this plethora of effort from us Luddites ?
