I don't have anything against ebooks. I never have actually. When I meet new people (outside of publishing) and they ask what I do for a living, and I explain that I'm a literary agent—one of the most common responses I get these days is "Oh, geez. Must be tough, right? With ebooks taking over, are you worried about your job?" And my response is a mixture of confusion-surprise-annoyance-amusement. Why would ebooks change my job? It's just another medium in which stories can be enjoyed. Whether its on a tablet or on paper or coming through someone's earbuds, my job doesn't change too much at all
