An editor panel I attended yesterday included a term that’s new to me: transmedia.
Writing Tip for Today: As I understood the wild and always wacky Jeff Gerke of Marcher Lord Press, transmedia refers to the integration of different media into e-books. Books will be emerging which are interactive and contain, besides text and illustrations, a variety of audio, video and other apps. Younger readers will come to expect this transmedia in short order, just as most of us can’t now imagine going out without a cell phone. Think of the possibilities!
