It worked pretty much the same for me, but in the other order - I had to use my regular e-mail address first, and then enter my gmail address to link my Google Books account to the bookstore account. The process is probably slightly different depending on the indie bookstore you choose. But, it walked me through it, and was just as easy as SteveK describes. And, exactly the same as SteveK, once purchased, I just clicked on the download links, and they automatically downloaded to Digital Editions.

It was sort of fun for me - I found a link in the list to an indie bookstore I used to HAUNT many years ago when I lived in another city, so I used that one. And, I'm going to keep an eye on their selections and buy from them whenever it makes sense (or even close to makes sense) - so I guess the promotion did its job of making me aware that the indie bookstore had e-books.

I also bought all of them - with the same hope of encouraging this type of sale in the future!
