Books are brain food.

Well, I did try that with the .mobi and eReader size-optimized .pdf versions (for seven months), with disappointing results.

I just published the Kindle version of my husband's book at Amazon last month. In that short period of time, there have been six times the number of sales at Amazon when compared to website sales over the entire seven-month period. Our website doesn't get a lot of traffic, I think there's a "trust factor" involved, and many people don't like PayPal. I don't think I want to go there again.

At this point, I'm leaning toward publishing directly at Barnes & Noble and then submitting to Smashwords for distribution to Apple, Sony, Kobo, etc. It's going to be a lot of work getting the files ready for submission, but I'll get to it one of these days, in between my other projects.

Thanks so much for your help, everyone!
