Teed Off! cover
I love the idea of ebooks. Many reasons but for now let’s just say: as a author because they offer a variety of new marketing opportunities and ease of updating and as a reader because they provide simplicity, portability and availability.
So, months ago I decided to republish a pair of my novels as ebooks.
Even though I’ve never touched one, my main goal was to have my mysteries available for Amazon’s amazing Kindle ereader.
Simple, right?
No such luck BUT through a peck of perserverance and a dash of digitizing, I now (or shortly will) have ebooks available:
- in the iTunes.com App Store
- on Smashwords.com (the ‘people’s ebook site’)
- BarnesandNobles.com (through Smashwords agreement)
- Shortcovers.com (Canada’s Indigo Books’ online bookstore),
- Mobipocket.com (one of the Internet’s biggest ebook sellers), and
- Amazon.com’s Kindle store (waiting approval/fingers crossed).
So, how did I do it? Well, I’d love to say “Elementary, my dear Reader”, but it wasn’t. However, neither was it rocket science.
You might want to give it a digital whirl. So, over the next few weeks, I’ll blog you through it.
Geronimo!
