The reason is that the digital format has meant a different way for authors to interact with their readers. These readers have also seen their roles redefined as in addition to readers they acts a viewers and listeners as well in many cases due to the visual and audio content in many blogs. At the same time, readers often influence the authors’ narratives content due to their interaction with authors in blogs, which pose the question about what do we consider literature nowadays and what is its relation to the digital self today. Several narrative examples and theories including “Humanities Scholars and Library-Based Digital Publishing” by Katrina Fenlon, Megan Senseney, Maria Bonn, and Janet Swatscheno are used in this review to explore these questions.
