Shares 559 In this article, I'll go through why self-publishing an ebook is a good idea, how to format an ebook for publication, exclusivity vs going wide on multiple platforms, the specific sites available for self-publishing ebooks and what information you need, thoughts on pricing, and piracy. [This article is an excerpt from available as a free ebook on all platforms and in print.] Why self-publish an ebook anyway? When authors think about publishing a book, they are often focused on print, but putting an ebook out alongside your print book, or even just an ebook on its own, is a much better idea. (a) Most indie authors make the majority of their income from ebooks. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In the financial year 2016-2017, I made. There’s more profit per ebook because there’s no printing or shipping. Readers can also buy immediately they hear about the book, so the barrier to purchase is lower. If you don’t have an ebook version, you’re missing out on a chunk of readers and revenue. You can sell your books to anyone in the world over the internet without printing or shipping costs. You really can have a multinational global business from your writing desk, which is exciting! (b) It’s a huge growth market. There are reports in the traditional press about the slowing down of ebook sales in the US, but this is skewed by data that only report on books with ISBNs. Many indies, myself included, don’t use ISBNs for ebooks. In fact, reports in October 2015 that 33% of all ebooks sold in the US don’t have ISBNs and none of those sales are counted in the traditional press reports. The Feb 2016 report demonstrated that the percentage market share of ebooks by indie authors only continues to grow in the US market. And remember, that’s only in the US. ![]() Jan 11, 2011 The only reason 'A Confederacy of Dunces' was ever published is because author John Kennedy Toole's mother pulled the manuscript out of the garbage after. I self-published four books last weekend. A lot of people ask me how to do it I use Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP). It’s so easy to use. Your book will appear in. The ebook market is considered ‘mature’ in the US, UK, Canada and Australia, but most of the rest of the world has barely started on the digital growth path. Two years ago, I had only sold books in five countries but as of July 2017, I have actually sold ebooks (in English) in 83 countries. Those sales streams are trickles right now, but they will only grow in the coming years as readers start to transition to digital. It’s inevitable with the rise of mobile technology and streaming internet. (c) The speed of publishing means you have control of when and how readers can get your book. Once you click Publish, your ebook can be for sale within 24 hours, sometimes it’s up in less than 4 hours. So, you can publish and have a book earning you money before lunch. That’s just brilliant! My global sales through Kobo (d) Ebooks are lower risk because they have a lower cost of entry. It is free to self-publish on the most popular ebook platforms. Obviously, you have to pay upfront for editing and cover design but the actual publishing is free and the stores take a small percentage of sales. Compared to most other business models, publishing in this digital age has low overheads, low entry costs and potentially a high margin of return. Hopefully, you’re now convinced that you need to publish an ebook. So, how do you get started? [This article is an excerpt from available as a free ebook on all platforms and in print.] How to format an ebook You need a formatted ebook file to load to the publishing platforms. This is your completed, edited manuscript in specific formats: •.mobi for Amazon •.ePub for the other stores You have two options to produce these: • Learn how to do it yourself – as I have done – and it really isn’t that hard, especially if you have plain text books without tables and images • Outsource this task and pay a professional to format the book.. One of the reasons I like to keep formatting in my control is because we often change our ebooks over time. Every time I put out a new book in a series, I want to update the back matter of the previous books with links to the new book. There are also the inevitable typos. No matter how many editors you use, somebody will always find a problem. Of course, this happens with traditionally published books too. It may be within a month or two, it may be a year later, but you know you’re going to want to fix it! If you have control, you can fix it yourself and upload a new file. If you outsource this task, you will need to pay for these updates and it won’t be as fast. Do-it-yourself formatting I use to format my ebooks (and you can also use it for print formatting too.) It's incredibly easy to use and creates beautiful ebooks in multiple formats. It actually makes formatting fun and means you can update your books as much as you like. But it's Mac only. So, if you are on a PC, then you can use for formatting, since many writers already have Scrivener as a writing tool. There are plenty of free tutorials online and I also recommend the which includes lots of mini videos on the functionality that will help speed up your writing and publishing process. There are other options for doing it yourself. • has been recommended to me by a number of authors • Read and use Also, if you have books in print from previous publishing deals, you can get them scanned from print back into Word so you can produce an ebook from that retrospectively. Many authors who had deals over 10 years ago will own their ebook rights, so it’s worth checking your contracts to see if you can publish digital versions, even if a traditional publisher owns your print rights. [If you need legal help with this, check out by Helen Sedwick] Considerations with images If you have a lot of images in your book or a lot of complicated tables, then you will have more problems in formatting. You will also have a bigger file size, and although ebooks are typically free in terms of delivery, Amazon does include a delivery cost in their pricing setup. That will be higher if you have a bigger file, and images can really expand the file size. If your delivery cost goes too high, you’re not going to make much royalty. So, it’s really important to consider the size of your file. If you write children’s books, then consider the, which is a specific tool for image-heavy children’s books. You can also check out, which can be used for children’s books on the iPad as well as textbooks with enhanced video and images. Amazon also has other tools for image-heavy books, including for enhanced textbooks and for comics and graphic novels. If you’re writing non-fiction with images, really consider whether you need them and whether they are critical to the reader’s experience. Authors can get romantically attached to images that actually might not be needed. It could be better to put your images on your website and include links within your books. This will get people over to your website, where they could potentially sign up for your email list. You could also put the images on a Pinterest board for social media sharing and use them for marketing. The other thing to consider with images is ensuring you have the right license. Are they your own images? Do you have permission to use them and what type of license have you paid for? If you’re concerned about these issues,. Exclusivity vs. Going wide Before you publish, you need to make a couple of decisions that impact the stores your book will sell in. (a) Do you want to publish on multiple platforms or go exclusive with Amazon? You can publish on Amazon KDP as well as all the other platforms, but Amazon also offers, which is a specific service that you can opt into for 90 day periods. It means that your books will be included in Kindle Unlimited, a subscription service for Amazon Prime members, where the books are more likely to be borrowed by readers. There are other advantages around free promotion days or countdown deals. You are paid based on pages read from a pot of money shared between authors at the end of each month. If you only have one book and are just starting out, then it’s definitely worth using KDP Select at least for the first 90 days. Or, if you have several books in unrelated niches, then it’s also potentially worth doing. But if you have multiple books in a series and you want to make a living with your writing, then going wide to other platforms is the best idea. It takes time to build your audience at other stores, and having multiple books in a series is the best way to gain reader loyalty and sales for the long term. Each store has comparative strengths and weaknesses in the different worldwide markets, so building for the future means going wide. You can also. (b) Do you want to go direct to the platforms or use an aggregator like Draft2Digital or Smashwords? Personally, I choose to publish direct to Amazon KDP, Kobo Writing Life and iBooks. I also use for Nook and other sites as well as Smashwords for some books. But if the thought of publishing on so many sites makes you crazy, then you can use an aggregator like or Smashwords and they will submit the books for you to the other stores. If you go direct, you have greater control over pricing and metadata per store. There are also specific promo opportunities on some stores that are not available if you go through an aggregator. However, I will admit that it takes time to manage publishing and updating all my books on all the different platforms every time I want to make a change. [This article is an excerpt from available as a free ebook on all platforms and also in print.] Where to self-publish an ebook Each of the platforms has a similar set of fields, even if their look and feel is slightly different. It's important to note that none of the platforms require programming or any kind of technical ability. If you can use Google and MS Word, you can self-publish an ebook! The best way to learn is to actually set up an account on the various stores and have a go. If you have all the relevant information ready, it shouldn't take too long to get your book out into the world. Here are the main sites for direct self-publishing: • • • • Here are the main distributors (where you load the book once and they distribute it to all the ebook platforms): • • Personally, I go to Amazon, Kobo and iBooks direct and then use Draft2Digital and Smashwords for other stores. You will need to choose what's the best option for you. The information you will need to self-publish an ebook In this section, I will briefly outline the information you need to enter in order to self-publish.. I'm assuming that your book is the best it can be and that you have used professional editors to make it a quality product. [ if you need one.] Book name/Title. You need to enter the exact title as shown on the cover in this field. This is because people used to ‘stuff' keywords into the title field e.g. “Paranormal romance with a noir detective twist.” If it's not on the cover, you can't include it here! However, you can change your title if you want to rebrand the books in the future. It can be done, but it's not easy. Often used for non-fiction books, and it's recommended that the sub-title contain. Series title and volume. If you're an ebook reader, you will know how powerful a series can be. On most of the stores, the books in a series are now linked together and customers are notified at the end of one book about the others in the series. You can also use series for non-fiction in order to group books for a similar audience. Edition number. If you substantially update a book over time, you can use different edition numbers. If you want to use the field, it can be your company name or an imprint name that you decide on, or you can just leave it blank. Readers don't generally shop by publisher, after all. This is the sales description or the back blurb. Book contributors. This is your author name and you can use whatever you like. I publish under Joanna Penn for non-fiction and J.F.Penn for fiction. [.] You can also add co-authors, translators, editors and other parties. Mostly, your books will be in English, but I have self-published books in French, German, Italian and Spanish. Indies are moving into translation as new markets open up. I don't personally use ISBNs for ebooks and I use free ones for print. Verify your publishing rights. Public domain books are out of copyright. So, say you wanted to publish Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, you could publish it but it's likely that one of the official versions would sell better and it's available for free everywhere anyway. For your own books, select “This is not a public domain work and I hold the necessary publishing rights.”. My categories for Stone of Fire, some of which are selected through keywords Categories. You should already have done your research on your chosen niche and chosen the appropriate categories. Now you just need to add them in. For Amazon, you get two choices although you can also use keywords to get into more, Kobo allows three and iBooks allows more, as does Draft2Digital. This is mainly for children's books, which are becoming more popular in digital format. You should have done your research on the type of thing that your customers search for and then enter the keywords here. Book release option. Do you want to publish now or have the book up for pre-order? Pre-orders are especially good for books in a series, as readers are often ready to order the next one as they finish the one before. You can set them up to a year in advance on iBooks and Kobo and 3 months on Amazon. On iBooks, you get sales rankings for the pre-order period and for the actual sales day, so it's well worth doing it there. For Amazon, you spread your sales over the pre-order period, so you'll need to weigh up what's best for your book. If you don't want to do a pre-order, just select “I am ready to release my book now.” Book cover. Upload your high-resolution book cover design. You can always replace this later if you want to rebrand. [Need a ] Upload your book file. This is the mobi for Kindle or the ePub for other stores. If it works, the upload will be shown as successful. You may get a notification of errors or spelling mistakes. Just fix them and re-upload another file if you need to. Most indies upload new files periodically as we update the back matter and lists of other books inside each book. Decide on DRM. Digital Rights Management is a way of locking a book to a format. So, people buy this Kindle book and they can only read it on a Kindle device. I don't enable digital rights management on any platform. As far as I'm concerned, if readers want to read it on another device, they should be able to. So, I always click, “Do not enable digital rights management.” If you want more information on this, check out. Preview your book. Most of the publishing platforms offer a way to preview your book file as the customer will see it. Amazon's preview tool offers the view per device, e.g. Kindle Fire vs. IPhone which is great, especially if you have specific formatting/tables/images. If there are problems, no worries. Just fix the file and re-upload. If you're going to self-publish ebooks or you are already selling them, then I do recommend that you buy an ebook reader or at least try reading an ebook on one of the many free apps. You need to understand the mindset of an ebook reader as well as their online experience. I read 99% ebooks these days, mostly on the Kindle Paperwhite and my iPhone Kindle app. I mostly download samples before buying, unless I know and trust the author. I also have preferences around pricing, and you will pick these things up if you try reading digitally. Verify your publishing territories. If you are self-publishing and you hold all the rights, you just click, “Worldwide.” If you are already traditionally published, you may own rights in other territories. For example, say you published with a publisher in the US and sold only the US rights, you could self-publish in the UK or Australia or any other country. You can select individual territories and deselect the ones that you have sold to someone else. Set your pricing. Most of the stores have country-specific pricing and it's well worth setting these individually instead of relying on an automatic exchange rate calculation. For example, if you price at US$4.99 and just leave it to automatically calculate for GBP, then readers in the UK might see £3.21, which is an odd price. It's best to change the UK price to £2.99 or £3.49 which is a price readers are more used to seeing. Amazon has specific price bands for royalties, so you need to price between $2.99 and $9.99, if you want 70% royalty. If you're pricing below or above that, then it's 35%. If you're in KDP Select, it doesn't make so much of a difference, because you'll get paid per page read. Kindle MatchBook. Amazon-specific field. If the print book is available and the customer has already bought the print book, they can get the eBook at a reduced price. I always select this. Kindle Book Lending. Amazon-specific field that allows readers to lend books to friends and family in specific territories, which I think is a good thing, so I always select this too. Then essentially, you click Save and Publish. The book will go through processing and within 4-24 hours, it will miraculously appear on the online bookstores. Super exciting! A few thoughts on pricing This is something that new authors agonize over, but the best thing to remember is: • You can change the price anytime, so start with something and move it if it's not working for you. • The more books you have, the more flexibility you have with pricing, and you won't be so emotionally attached. It's hard to put up a book for free if it's your only one, but when you have seven in a series, it's not hard at all to put the first at permanently free (permafree), as I have done with Stone of Fire, ARKANE Book 1. • Consider the value to the customer and what they can get for that price within the same genre. For example, if John Grisham's latest legal thriller is $4.99, you can't really price your first legal thriller at $7.99. I have fiction at free, $2.99 for novellas, $4.99 for full-length novels, $6.99-$8.99 for boxsets, $7.99 for non-fiction and then higher prices for other items. • Free is a marketing strategy, in the same way that offering samples of cheese or wine in shops helps people to discover new tastes, so they might go on to buy the rest of the product. It's very useful when you have a series, as it can lead people into buying the rest of the books. If you want to make a book permafree, then you need to price it for $0 on stores that allow this: Kobo, iBooks, Smashwords, Draft2Digital, and then wait for Amazon to price match to $0. • Kobo and Apple iBooks both have the capability to schedule pricing promotions so you can set and forget and the price will revert after a discount period. With Amazon, you have to change it to the discount price and then go back in and change it back after the discount period is over, unless you're in KDP Select (exclusive) when you can schedule the promotion. [This article is an excerpt from available as a free ebook on all platforms and also in print.] EU VAT tax: In Dec 2014, a law was brought in across the EU that meant sales of digital products, including ebooks, would now be subject to Value Added Tax based on the country of the customer, not the supplier. The law was aimed at stopping companies like Amazon, Google and Apple from situating their companies in countries with specific tax breaks to lower their tax in other countries. But of course, it hit every author and small business selling digitally. This tax is now spreading to other countries, so we can assume it will be part of the global digital marketplace going forward. It affects you because this tax is now included in your list price so you will be paid less per book, but all the technical stuff is handled by the distributor i.e. Amazon, Kobo, iBooks etc. For more information, check this. What about piracy? I always get asked about piracy when I speak about ebooks. There are a few things to consider. • Most readers are not pirates. Most readers are wonderful people who are happy to support authors. Why miss out on the real market for fear of the pirates? • Piracy will happen if your book is popular. There’s really no way of stopping it, but what do you think the most pirated books are? Harry Potter and other big sellers, of course, and does that impact their sales? Most people who pirate books are not going to be your readers anyway. It’s more important to consider obscurity, then piracy. More authors suffer from being completely unknown than from being famous enough to be significantly pirated. • Some authors have used piracy as a marketing tool. And his sales picked up after word spread about him. Tim Ferriss launched The Four Hour Chef with a promotion on Bit Torrent which resulted in massive sales. • Stay aware just in case. You can set up alerts with sites like mention.net around your book title or lines from your book. There are ways to get your books taken down, but in my experience, they pop up again all over the place. If you are seriously worried, then check out. OK, we're done.

It gives you detailed information on how vehicle components work and what they are for, without getting too complicated. It describes elements in such an easy way you'd wouldn't believe you didn't understand it before.

Amazon Product Review||A model of Clarity. James May, BBC's Top Gear. ![]() ![]() Anon June 27, 2009 at 1:26 pm Both collections are a useful starting point for figuring out what might go into a reading list of Western classics. The great books series has the disadvantage of having very small print. Also, for each book in both series there are more authoritative and helpful editions/translations of these books. Unless you must have a shelf of books with identical bindings, there is really no need to purchase them as a series. Moreover, nearly every public library I’ve ever been to has a complete collection of both. For example, my Complete Essays of Montaigne (trans. Donald Frame), is both a better translation and more complete than the smattering of Montaigne you get in one of these series with acceptably large print. I recommend using the list of books in the series as a reference, and borrowing larger print authoritative editions and modern translations of the one you want to read next from the library. Alternatively, if you want to own the book and underline it and write notes in it, you might consider buying a good used copy of some other edition. As a last resort if you don’t have access to a library or to books, or prefer for some reason to read books on a computer or ebook reader, you could download them. I recommend doing this one book at a time, since it seems less daunting to deal with one book at a time, and then you are not in danger of every wasting hundreds of dollars on books you have no interest in reading. Brad June 28, 2009 at 12:01 pm Hi, I really enjoy your blog. I noticed you mentioned something about the online availability of the Great Books of the Western World. I want to confirm that a large majority of these books do exist in digital print and are available for free. For those who don’t want to spend the money, here is a list of websites that I used in compiling my very own digital collection that contains the same works as the Great Books: books.google.com, ulib.org,,, gutenberg.org. From these sites, I managed to find all but the most obscure pieces contained in the entire sixty-four volume collection. If anyone would rather not search for the books on these sites, I might just decide to distribute my digital collection through the usual meansJust let me know. Jamie June 29, 2009 at 11:33 am Anon, good point about the print in the Great Books series. I like the double columns, but it is a bit difficult on the eyes. You’re right about there being better editions out there. One problem: if someone is just getting started with the classics, they’re not going to know where to look much less which editions to choose. I suppose it is possible to figure that out by reading reviews on Amazon and other sites. ![]() Brad, I’m sure a lot of people would be interested in knowing where to find these books online. They’re definitely available, but you have do have to search (unlike the Harvard Classics, which are all on a single list from Bartleby). There may be some copyright issues with including selections organized in the exact same way, as the series is considered an anthology. If you decide to look into that, please post back. Eric, I love the Synopicon. ![]() Archive.org provides all 51 volumes of The Harvard Classics anthology in many formats for free download on their servers. Unfortunately, the current page listing all of these volumes is a little disorganised, so to help you easily locate and download the files you need, I have collected all of the links on a. I referred to them as “indexes” above so as not to generate confusion, but they’re really a different thing altogether. Some public libraries are now providing no-cost access to the online version of the Great Books. Britannica has added thousands of links into the Synopicon, so all you have to do is click on a reference listed and you’ll be directed to the text. Karen Gurney July 1, 2009 at 11:00 am My parents purchased the Harvard Classics set for us when I was young. They encouraged us to read and set the example by having a family reading time, duirng which we all gathered in one room with our reading picks. In addition, they woud talk to us about what we had read and valued our opinions. While I am the only one of my siblings to obtain a colelge degree, we are all familiar with Plato, Socrates and much more. This was the best investment my parents ever made and the set has since been handed down in the family. Jem October 15, 2009 at 10:03 am Jamie, I just discovered your blog, and it looks like you’ve got some great information here. Thank you for sharing. I’m a 23-year-old who’s looking at going back to grad school, and even though I was an English major, I feel like there’s so many great classic works that I missed in school (I read Moby Dick and Don Quixote last year for the first time and I am currently reading The Illiad). So I feel like I’ve been trying my best to catch-up with these works and was excited to hear about the Great Books Series, because it provided a “checklist” of these classic works. I was looking online, decided to gather as much information about the series before purchasing it, when I discovered your blog. I’ve got three brief questions for you: one, I looked for online text for the Syntopicon and was having trouble finding anything. I know you mentioned a couple of links in your blog response above and was wondering if you could offer me any more advice on how to view both volumes. Secondly, I found a list online for a 10 year reading program for the 54 volume Great Series set. Do you know if there is a reading plan for the 60 volume set? Lastly, are there any other great resources or lists that you would recommend, as well as other websites that could provide helpful background information on the authors. Thanks for the advice. I’ll check out more information on the Harvard Classics series, and I hope to read more of your blog articles soon! Pat Duggan January 26, 2010 at 1:00 pm Hi, I had a brief browse through this site (after a search for resources on Illich) and I think what you are doing/advocating is admirable. However, I wonder if you see any contradiction in pursuing an education such as that provided by the ‘great books’. Is this type of education still not organised around high-centres (Harvard, etc) and imbued with the same kind of authoritarianism. I understand an interest in canonical texts (because let’s face it, SOME of them deserve to be there) but by sifting through 60 or so volumes of handpicked texts by an educated elite, do you not play back into the same value system? Do you believe the ‘great books’ (and I am aware of the overwhelming irony of my quoting this during this argument) to be ‘the best that has been thought and said’, as Matthew Arnold put it? Im just wondering – I dont intend this to be construed as particularly critical. And why are the ‘classics’ ‘higher-level’ works?? Patrick March 10, 2010 at 11:45 am Pat Duggan, Many of the same titles are included in the two sets. And, where the titles differ, the chosen texts convey the same ideas. There is a reason for that. There isn’t really much opportunity for “the educated elite” to impose their “authoritarianism.” Books become classics and are chosen for sets like these, because those same books have survived the test of time and have been most influential on civilization and history. Neither, the “the educated elite,” nor we, can change the influential nature and popularity of these works. The people who edited these sets were just what the verb “edited” implies — they were editors. They made choices such as “which author best represents the philosophy of Stoicism in a set of 50 volumes” or “which public domain translation is appropriate.” •. November 21, 2010 at 11:35 am I’ve been a fan of your blog for awhile. I think it’s great that you’re promoting self-education and I agree that investing one’s time in either set will be a worthwhile endeavor. I’m currently working my way through the Harvard Classics, writing a blog with my thoughts and some selected quotes from each volume. I began a few weeks ago, and am now beginning Volume 4. So far I don’t mind the non-chronological order, and it can be refreshing to jump ahead or back in time between selections and see how ideas have changed or remained the same. ![]() Ebook about Gun Silencer Manual is available on digital and printed edition.

Herrnstein Language: en Publisher by: Source Books in the History of Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 72 Total Download: 804 File Size: 48,7 Mb Description: This is a source book unique in its scope, clarity, and general interest. Its 116 excerpts range in time from Epicurus (ca. 300 B.C.) to the turn of the present century and sometimes, when continuity requires, a little beyond (as to K. Lashley, 1929). It includes excerpts from Kepler (1604) on the inverted retinal image, Descartes (1650) on the soul's interaction with the machine of the body, Newton (1675) on the seven colors of the spectrum, Locke (1700) on association of ideas, Whytt (1751) on the spinal reflex, Weber (1834) on Weber's law, Darwin (1859) on evolution, Sechenov (1863) on reflexology, Hughlings Jackson (1884) on nervous dissolution, William James (1890) on associationism, Thorndike, Pavlov, Wertheimer, Watson, and 70 other great figures in the history of psychology. Arranged by topic rather than in the usual strict chronological order, each of the first fourteen chapters traces the development of one important subject in experimental and quantitative psychology. The final chapter discusses the history of thinking about the nature of psychology itself. The editors provide an introduction to each chapter and each excerpt, indicating the significance of the content to follow and establishing historical continuity.

Author by: Jan Plamper Language: en Publisher by: OUP Oxford Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 49 Total Download: 133 File Size: 48,7 Mb Description: The history of emotions is one of the fastest growing fields in current historical debate, and this is the first book-length introduction to the field, synthesizing the current research, and offering direction for future study. The History of Emotions is organized around the debate between social constructivist and universalist theories of emotion that has shaped most emotions research in a variety of disciplines for more than a hundred years: social constructivists believe that emotions are largely learned and subject to historical change, while universalists insist on the timelessness and pan-culturalism of emotions. In historicizing and problematizing this binary, Jan Plamper opens emotions research beyond constructivism and universalism; he also maps a vast terrain of thought about feelings in anthropology, philosophy, sociology, linguistics, art history, political science, the life sciences - from nineteenth-century experimental psychology to the latest affective neuroscience - and history, from ancient times to the present day.

The accsupp technique is not intended for longer text and it is no surprise that it is limited to one page. You would need to add it for every page somehow.

The pdfcrypt package provides the needed options, but encryption support of pdftex was dropped since pdfTeX-1.10a (2003-01-16), so you are out of luck. However, the manual of this package lists several free alternative ways to add this security feature to PDFs. Possible Duplicate: PDF with un-copyable text What is the most effective ways to protect text in a PDF from being copied with Ctrl+C? I am a writer and want to sell my ebooks on the web. But recently there are many bad buyers who remove the protection, modify the contents, and share them on the web. My related question: I want something that can prevent someone from removing the security protection (permission to print, edit, making comments, etc) in my ebooks. I also want to assign a unique identifier for each buyer so I can trace who shares the book (when I get the copy on the web). How to accomplish my scenario with minimal hassle? My ebooks are sold in PDF format. I have found several discussions, and most agree that using Guard Book Pro seems to be the best way (I have no connection with this company). Others have opined that maybe it is not the worst thing in the work if your book gets passed around, as that is free publicity. My own two cents would say that if it were a novel especially, this may be a great approach. Novelists usually get rich on their SECOND novel, only because the first one made them famous. Lastly, if you want to keep if from spreading, I liked this last idea a lot too: Add the person’s Paypal name and address to every book you send out. That won’t stop everyone either, but it will stop the vast majority of ordinary users. Would you want that info to be passed around? There is still no perfect way, but these will minimize your exposure.IF that is ultimately what you really want. ![]() ![]() I secretly cringe every time I hear how successful ebook readers are becoming.

That goal was to be a good father and have the evidence of well adjusted, respectful, engaged, goal oriented, self-governing, assertive, grateful, and considerate kids. To sum it up I wanted to be an effective father and end up with great kids. That was no small task considering the fact that I was a victim of child abuse. This is a book about overcoming.

Surely that meant it was a good year to climb Denali? There had been an unprecedented spell of good weather on the peak known as Mt McKinley, one of the Seven Summits, a peak notorious for its severe conditions and cold temperatures that trapped climbers in storms for days on end. This year people were climbing straight up and reaching the summit without a hitch, and coming back down again days ahead of schedule.

Here are a few publishing highlights from the past week. (Note: Some of these stories were previously published on Radar.) Harry Potter ebooks coming via new Pottermore site JK Rowling’s of her website — and the long-awaited arrival of “Harry Potter” ebooks — was the story this week in publishing circles. Pottermore will offer extra Harry Potter content for fans (Wired has on the content speculation), and in the fall the site will exclusively sell the ebook versions of the popular series. Thanks to a, the ebooks will be available across multiple ereading platforms, including the Kindle. Rowling introduces Pottermore in this short video: In a by Philip Jones and Charlotte Williams for Bookseller.com, Rowling commented on why she’s choosing to sell directly to her readers: It was quite straightforward for me It means we can guarantee people everywhere are getting the same experience and at the same time. Some as the in publishing, and it definitely has ruffled some feathers. In a, a spokesperson for UK book retail giant Waterstone commented: We always sought to add value for the fans when a new Harry Potter book was released and their launch days have become the stuff of legend at Waterstone’s and other booksellers. We’re therefore disappointed that, having been a key factor in the growth of the Harry Potter phenomenon since the first book was published, the book trade is effectively banned from selling the long-awaited e-book editions of the series. The site will go live in October, but Rowling that will give one million fans early access to Pottermore in July. — Being held on Tuesday, Oct. 11, 2011, TOC Frankfurt will feature a full day of cutting-edge keynotes and panel discussions by key figures in the worlds of publishing and technology. ![]() ![]() Amazon tablet rumors leak The mill this week with leaks of a possible Amazon tablet coming to market in. Digitimes Amazon is aiming to sell 4 million units, globally, this year. ![]() Sales of Harry Potter ebooks and audiobooks have more than doubled over the last quarter after JK Rowling’s digital publishing arm allowed the bestselling series to.

A that Amazon hasn’t officially commented, but that same post also where Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos told Consumer Reports to “stay tuned.” A faster horse isn’t the answer: How content should be conceived in a mobile world As the mobile space increasingly connects the real and virtual worlds, changing the way people,,, and (very soon), some argue that amidst all these shifts the space really needs a. Taking the analog experience and simply isn’t cutting the mustard. In the spirit of disruption, I’ve reached out to several people across the tech and publishing industries to answer one question: If you were going to build an app that fully harnessed mobile’s capabilities, what would it do and how would it work? Up first is Joe Wikert (), general manager and publisher at O’Reilly Media. ![]() Wikert recently posted a bemoaning the state of digital content, specifically in relation to magazines. He summed up the issue succinctly in his post: The bottom line is that I had higher hopes for the shorter-form content model by now. I’m hard-pressed to point to any one magazine app and say, “yeah, they’ve really created something special here.” Instead, the Wired’s of the world came in and offered the print content in e-format and thought they could charge a lot for it. I’m glad they’ve learned that won’t work, but now I’m hoping they’ll start experimenting more, either on their own or jointly with some of their competitors. Joe’s response to my question follows: If you were going to build an app that fully harnessed mobile’s capabilities, what would it do and how would it work? Joe Wikert: That’s the million-dollar question or maybe the billion-dollar one! I have a few thoughts on the capabilities required to capture my attention, but I also realize that there are probably many features I haven’t even thought of. It reminds me (once again) of a Henry Ford quote I like to toss out from time to time: “If I had asked my customers what they wanted, they would have told me a faster horse.” In other words, if customers aren’t already used to a particular platform or its potential capabilities, it’s easy for them to limit their thinking to what they already know, not what they haven’t yet experienced. One of the key things I’d like to see happen with content is for us to stop looking at it through the lens of a book. We tend to get hung up with animating page-turns and we think less about how the content should be conceived in a digital-first (or digital-only) world. • This story continues.
