Damned Internet
I’ve noticed something strange lately. I don’t read as many books as I used to. I used to love to curl up in bed or on the
sofa and devour a good book. But lately
I can’t seem to stay focused. I know
why. It’s that damned internet. It keeps
calling me. It’s like that old Twilight
Zone episode where a guy goes to Las Vegas for the first time and
discovers slot machines. You know the
one I’m talking about? He goes back to his room and tries to go to bed but he
hears his name being called in a loud whisper.
“Franklin.” The slot machines are
calling.
That’s how I feel.
The internet is calling and I must heed the call: email, Twitter,
Facebook, my blog. I must check
them. I MUST CHECK THEM!
Last evening, I sat in the living room, book in hand and
began to read: “Franklin.” (I know that’s not my name but it has an
ominous ring to it). A few nights ago I
lay in bed, picked up my book and began to read: “Franklin.” I realize I had just checked my email ten
minutes ago so I continued reading… “Franklin!”
But when was the last time I checked my Facebook page? An entire hour ago. It’s important that I find out what Barbara
Jensen had for lunch, so I stop reading and I check.
I’ve been reading the current book I’m on for nearly a month
now. Yes, it’s interesting. No, it’s not as long as War And Peace. But I can’t get through it. Am I alone in
this? Do any of you out there have this problem? That damned internet is destroying my
life. Someone has to shut it down. It’s dangerous… Excuse me?
What was that?
“Franklin.”
Time to sign off. I
have to check my Twitter stream.
Aside
from being addicted to the internet, I am the author of the books of The Falling Angels Saga; when you’re
through updating your Facebook status, I hope you’ll check them out.

About the Author:
E Van Lowe was born in the Bronx a long time ago, back in the days when children were supposed to be seen and not heard. Fortunately for E, his parents allowed him to speak freely. Unfortunately for his parents and older brother, E had a lot to say. He was speaking quite freely until one day, while his mother was trying to watch her “stories” (which is code for soap operas), she suggested that instead of speaking freely, he write all his important thoughts down. E wrote down many important thoughts, such as: crayons melt when you leave them on the radiator, or toy soldiers melt when you drop them in the muffin batter before mom puts it in the oven. His brother thought he was weird, but E was only ten years old at the time. What did he expect, Shakespeare? E liked writing things down so much, he decided that when he grew up, he was going to become a professional writer.
E has gone on to write for many award winning TV shows including: The Cosby Show, and Even Stevens. He also co-wrote the Academy Award nominated short film, Cadillac Dreams. Never Slow Dance With A Zombie was his first teen novel. Boyfriend From Hell is the first in the Falling Angels Saga. The second novel in the saga, Earth Angel, will be coming out soon. It seems E still has lots of important, and weird, thoughts to share with readers.
