Overwhelming,
By A Customer
This review is from: Poor Richard's Creating E-Books (Paperback)
If you're looking for a book to guide you through the thicket of self-publishing in ebook and print on demand formats, this book isn't it. It's full of facts but not very much nitty gritty know-how from those who have gone through the process, learned from their mistakes and now are sharing their wisdom with others.

This review is from: Poor Richard's Creating E-Books (Paperback)
Overall, Poor Richard's Creating E-Books is an extremely detailed look at how an author can create e-books using the vast amount of online resources available. Van Buren and Cogswell begin with an excellent explanation of what an e-book actually is, followed by an overview of the different e-book file formats, software, and hardware.The step-by-step guide on converting manuscripts into e-books for the various reading devices contains valuable tips for self-publishers. The authors stress the importance of publishing a quality product and advise on how to maintain digital rights and register for ISBNs. In addition to crucial tips on how to effectively market your finished e-book, Creating E-Books wraps up by showcasing success stories and examining future trends in the industry. I definitely recommend this book -- I believe it would be a powerful addition to any e-publisher's resource library. |
