Adapting to Change: Christian Authors and the Challenges of Technology

The advent of new technology has made several things easier and faster. However, with technological advancements comes the challenge of adapting to changes. An article posted on ChristianityToday.com discusses how the world of Christian writing is not spared as Christian authors and publishers have faced opposition to their works that were published on eBooks: …Colorado literary agent Rachelle Gardner warned in a blog that if Christian authors fail to mention their books' faith-based content, they are in danger of receiving nasty reviews. "The star ratings on [sites such as] Amazon and Goodreads do influence how people look at the book," she said. An underground controversy over the practice has raged the past two years, since Christian publishers discovered free eBooks could increase author awareness, said Gardner.
