I see no threat to the writing profession/hobby. Even if a new kind of picture language(hieroglyphic) is invented nothing would have changed. Artists-of-the-minds-eye(writers) would adopt this to paint pictures for the mind. Writing does not have to be on paper: it has been on clay, on papyrus and then on paper. Wherever it goes next there we shall be. Paper and paper books are not quintessential to writing. It is like all art, the artistic urge that is permanent factor. Art will always find a medium.
And writing is still the most economical way to record and store ideas. It is a code(26 characters in the English language). It is not going away, and paper would be around a long while. I’m looking to the new medium. I am writing this electronically and putting words down in light, no ink stains, the eraser is button and I have three options. Music is diffusing from my writing device. I have access to almost all the information in the world on(through) this device. Shakespeare will be jealous. Why must material be on paper? Even agents don’t want paper queries.
Why bemoan the publishing business.Writing is the commonest skill in the world. The system is clogged up somewhat because everybody has a story to tell. It is tight in other lines of trade as well because everybody has something to sell. We are going to write with light and sell in light. There are a billion pictures to choose from if you need some scenery. It is now easier than ever before, since the world was created, to get published. People publish their thoughts everyday on Facebook and other sites, and broadcast everyday on You-tube. This is the age of the freebie. You rake in the revenue from advertisement.
