I read physical newspapers, books and magazines - I guess that makes me old fashioned although I do read online articles too. I also hand write my daily journal using a fountain pen... that probably makes me archaic...😉
Well done, Harry! I like to write with a fountain pen too. I don't buy a newspaper and just tend to read the headlines that come up on a search.
I have gone back to buying or borrowing physical books and no longer use online books. I am not against the digital world entirely, but it has become too damaging the way it is used now.
I published a debut book for a friend before Christmas and as it is a book aimed at 9-14 years, we are surprised to find that Kindle : paperback was 1:6. I suspect it was because many Christmas purchases were grandparents verifying that a new author is suitable for little Johnny. As a member of The Arthur Ransome Society I can report that our kids favour paper and audio. But then we are a literary society!

It's good to know that you're out there keeping books and the reading of them alive.
