Hello, from a crime writer in the UK
Hello all,

I've come to electronic publishing from the point of view of a writer (I've just published a collection of short crime fiction), but it's clear that I need to get an e-reader too, as I'm finding a lot of good books to read by other writers and my phone and laptop just aren't kind enough to my eyes.

I've promised myself that the sales from my book will go towards a new Kindle. Time will tell whether I'm waiting a long, long time.

Cheers,

Iain
