    About this ebook

    E-book Publishing: Create Your Own Brand of Digital Books offers writers, business leaders who aspire to be authors, and journalists a no-fluff guide to creating e-books in every major format. While there are plenty of books on e-book publishing targeted toward fiction writers, writers of all kinds and business leaders who want to parlay their ideas into an authoritative brand of digital products now have their own professional guide to e-book publishing.

    This is a good book if you are:

    * A business writer
    * Journalist
    * Essay writer
    * Business professional who desires to be an autor
    * A freelance writer who wants to expand into e-books
    * A ghostwriter who desires her own bylines
    * A fiction writer looking for a new perspective on e-book publishing
    * You want to learn how to create and publish e-books
    * You have a desire to run a digital publishing company

    In this guide you'll learn why e-book publishing is here to stay; what the prospects look like for the future of publishing e-books; why you should transform you print books into digital book products; how the publishing process works from the moment you get an idea to when you go to press; an overview of everything you need to think about during the publishing process; step-by-step instructions for creating e-books in the PDF, Kindle, ePub, and iBooks formats; everything you need to know about e-book distributor; how to get your e-books into libraries; why you should distribute your e-books to subscription services like Oyster and Scribd; strategies for marketing e-books; e-book pricing strategies used by the pros; and how to run a digital publishing company.

    Based on his own experiences in e-book publishing and studying the e-book market since Amazon introduced the Kindle in 2007, Allen Taylor shares his insights into how anyone with a desire to become a published author can create e-books and publish them on their own.

    Where other books on e-book publishing get long-winded, Allen Taylor cuts the fluff. Where others don't provide enough information, E-book Publishing: Create Your Own Brand of Digital Books goes into more detail.

    Chapters include:

    1. Why You Want to Publish an E-book
    2. An Overview of the Publishing Process
    3. PDF Books
    4. Amazon Kindle
    5. ePub Formats
    6. Books Format
    7. E-book Distributors
    8. Marketing Your E-books
    9. E-book Pricing Strategies
    10. Running a Digital Press

    You will learn more about the nuts and bolts of e-book creation and e-book publishing from this book than you'll learn from most book on the subject, including:

    * Which online book stores allow you to publish directly
    * How to convert books to each format for selling on your website
    * The four ways to publish a PDF book
    * How to create an iBook using Mac software on your PC
    * Which e-book distributor can get your e-book into libraries
    * How to offer discounts on e-books using coupons
    * Where to seek submissions if you want to publish other writers
    * The essential tools you need to publish an e-book and to run a digital publishing company
    * AND MUCH MORE!

    If you've ever thought about publishing an e-book, now is the time to learn this skill. Now is the time to take your writing to a new level and to advance your ideas beyond your boardroom.
