Welcome to MobileRead Ryan.
It' always nice to have authors join the forum, there are several resident ones here now. I'm sure you'll get lots of advice on which format your eBooks should be available in.
We like friendly people, and animals too, so I'm sure you'll fit right in. Just jump in on any forum and make some comments. The lounge is available when you tire of eBook related topics.
Your profile says you have a netbook. If you're looking to get an eInk device there'll be lots of help here in helping you decide which one to get.
(I'm tempted to make a joke about fencing, but I'll refrain since you're a newbie.)
Welcome to the forum,
WDE.
