Perhaps you would like to give a copy to one of your readers? Just let me know.

Basically you can use Word or OpenOffice (which is free). Open office can convert to a PDF. Then Amazon has a software called Mobi that let's you convert your file to Kindle format. For Nook, you just upload it to Barnes and Noble and it converts. Once you've converted, you then have to check it and if the pages don't layout the way you want, then you fix your original file and re-convert, etc. They have instructions to follow.<br /><br />Then the tough part starts, pricing. A lot of the books price at $.99 because the idea is most people will fork that out whether they think they'll like the book or not. I have Silver Knight at $1.99 just because with the economy I don't want to charge any more than that but I think it's worth more than $.99. Also, I can discount it that way sometimes.<br /><br />Then the marketing begins! BTW you wouldn't want to host a giveaway for Silver Knight would you? :)<br />Really it's all about getting the word out there because if people don't know about it, how can they decide to buy it?<br /><br />Feel free to email me at caron@caronrider.com if you need any help!
