Cell Phone Novels: More Novel Than Apple Cell Phones?
This author is not so old, in fact he’s only 23, well, almost 24. And yet he is already hearing himself say “I never thought I’d see the day.” It is not something he wants to hear uttered from his own lips but that is the case today when he learned of the Cell Phone Novel. That’s correct, it is the first literary genre to come out of the cellular age. Frankly, it is quite mind-boggling. Things like Unlocked GSM Cell Phones and Apple Cell Phones iPhone is crazy enough. But this, this is nuts!
In 2003 the first Cell Phone Novel was published by an author under the name “Yoshi.” “Yoshi” is a Japanese native from Tokyo and this first story was titled “Deep Love.” It’s the story of a teenager doing subsidized dating and ends up contracting AIDS. But the plot is neither here nor there, what matters is what entails a Cell Phone Novel.
The sentences are short and often in the form of dialogues. The spacing can depict the mood of the story. For example, in a tense moment the words will be squeezed together and cramped whereas an easy flowing poem about the natural world may be more spaced out. The chapters are typically sent individually, after the book has been downloaded, with each one being between 70 – 100 characters. The most common topics are of anything related to love and are usually targeted towards teens. When you take out your Unlocked GSM Cell Phones or Apple Cell Phones are you interested in a “novel?”
Originating in Japan, Mobile Phone Novels have spread throughout the world with a huge fan base in China. They are so popular in their native country, Japan that in 2007 five of the ten bestselling novels were originally Cell Phone Novels.
Currently the main writers of Cell Phone Novels are university students who are engaged in pop culture and trends and understand what the younger, teen audience wants. Like video games, Cell Phone Novels put the reader into a first person point of view for the story. Furthermore, they are as write on the move as they are to read. And thus they are changing reading altogether. Like the ebook these little suckers are a mobile convenience that ultimately saves time. But with Apple Cell Phones iPhone and other smart phones, can this really be a lasting idea?
And what are we really looking at here? It may be fun to have a Cell Phone Novel to read out of sheer boredom but are they really going to push people away from the book which we are accustomed to? That seems far-fetched but they can influence a generation in either a good way or a bad way and as of now it remains to be seen which way it will sway. After all, reading on Unlocked GSM Cell Phones isn’t the worst thing in the world.
