So as I tentatively test the concept of Twitter, and knowing full well that by some standards I am about 100 years behind times, I thought I would explore what modern day concepts some of my classical literary heroes might have observed.
And since I must begin with the bard-
William Shakespeare - Youtube
Edgar Allen Poe - Blogger
Lord Byron - Twitter
John Milton - Satellite radio program
Charles Dickens - Cell phone novels
Jane Austen - Kindle
Mary Shelley - Fan fiction sites
Alexander Dumas - Gamer
Fyodor Dostoevsky - Independent press - pay as you go and in his case I hope it's not by word
Ernest Hemingway - Online columnist (secretly in league with Man vs. Wild and Rick Steve's)
Sorry the list is not much longer but I was trying to limit myself to one author per electronic publishing format. I would love to hear about anyone you would like to add to this list.
