As I (figuratively) kneel here at my keyboards, I see a
blank  wall  before  me.   That  blank  wall  represents the
barrier that presently exists between reading  and  computer
use  as  it  exists  TODAY  and as it WILL EXIST in the near
future.  Just as the so-called Sound Barrier proved to be  a
figment  of  human  imagination, so, too, is this mercantile
wall a creation of the mind.

     However,   just   as  Howard  Carter  needed  his  Lord
Carnarvon to help finance his dream of finding the  Tomb  of
King  Tut,  WE  NEED  HELP  to become The First and The Best
Fully Commercial Diskbook Publishers.  WE NEED HELP to break
down that wall.  I believe that there are vast treasures  on
the  other  side  of  that  wall.   Monetary Treasures ?  Of
course !  More important, I  believe  that  there  are  vast
treasures  of the mind and spirit that we may be offering to
the reading and PC-Using  public.   Without  the  staggering
start-up  costs  inherent in paper publishing, we may accept
manuscripts from many more new writers who  might  otherwise
never  be  published.   Acceptance  of manuscripts should be
based on the merit of the manuscript and the talent  of  the
writer rather than "Is this going to be a BlockBuster Hit ?"
