However, have you also considered professional ebook markets for getting your novel out there?

Let me know if you'd like me to format it for you. I've assembled some books here on MobileRead.




Don

Thankyou kindly for the offer

When it's done I'll contact you and take you up on the formatting, as I'm focusing mainly on .epub at the moment and wouldn't know where to start with .mobi and LRF.

At the moment the plan is to put my novel out there without any DRM for free and in as many formats as possible. I'm at the very early stages of a year-long plan with a couple of unpublished authors to set up a site offering their work DRM free and donation-driven also. My work is acting as the guinea pig for the others

We've been investigating avenues of e-book publishing and are unimpressed so far with what we've seen. What we're aiming for is to put the work out as unencumbered by DRM or set-prices as possible and let the work decide its own future. If enough people like said work, we may go a donation route. If the work is poorly recieved, then we'll hold off on the donation but continue to put out the work until there is enough momentum to ask for donations. We're all in agreement that the fiction we produce must be free in the first instance, or available under Creative Commons licensing.

In any case, it's an exciting time to be writing and be involved with ebooks
