Steve’s question for readers

Stephen M. Miller
front cover Who's Who & Where's Where in the Bible for Kids
HOW TO RESURRECT A BOOK. Who's Who & Where's Where in the Bible for Kids is out of print. That's going to change. The question is: What form should the body of a resurrected book take?

A BOOK OF MINE WENT OUT OF PRINT.

Fortunately, that hasn’t happened to me very often in my writing career.

The book that recently got itself retired is Who’s Who & Where’s Where in the Bible for Kids.

The rights have reverted back to me, and I’m brainstorming about how to resurrect it, now that we writers aren’t nearly as dependent on publishers as we used to be.

Hybrid authors, as they are sometimes called, work on both sides of the fence: with publishers and without—but mostly with publishers. It’s a bit like my hybrid Prius, that runs with gas and without—but mostly with gas.

This resurrected book will be without publishers. It’s an experiment I’m working on.

The question is what this book’s resurrected body is going to look like.

  • Will it be something we can touch, smell, and put in our mouth—like a traditional book or maybe a print-on-demand book, both of which are made from a dead tree or recycled junk mail envelopes?
  • Will it be something that lives in the digitized spirit world—like an app, an ebook, or a downloadable PDF?
  • Will it be a YouTube video—with me as Mr. Rogers reading the book for kids in My Holy Neighborhood?

Can you spare a few…?

Those of you who have kids or grandkids ages 8-12, yet you miraculously have a few minutes to spare, could you spare me a few minutes?

Take a look at the sample pages in Who’s Who & Where’s Where in the Bible for Kids.

If your kids or grandkids would actually use a resource like this—or if you were going to study it with them—in what form do you think it would get the most use?

  • Printed book
  • Ebook
  • Phone app
  • YouTube video, as a series with one video per topic
  • Downloadable PDF

I’m listening as I continue brainstorming with some of my production partners.

    Make it a free download PDF file or a reasonably priced e-book.

    Sorry Mr. Miller, I have not been blessed with kids or grand kids. I kind of have jealously issues about it, too. But, that’s for me to work out with Our Father. Best of Luck!

    As someone who works with kids as a Children’s Pastor this is a great resource. As far as best form, that is such a tough question! I still love actual books so I would always want that option. The Phone App would, however, be awesome for leaders and families alike! Many curriculums now include phone apps as part of their companion resources and I think this “book” would be great as a phone app resource. I also use a lot of media in my teaching so I love the YouTube video options. I think all of your options have merit depending on where/who using. I look forward to seeing the resurrected product!

      Hey, thanks Stacy. Sorry I was slow approving your comment. I thought I had done that, but my son corrected me at supper. You’re good to comment in the future, too, now that I’ve got you approved. Peace to you.
