This is all very new to me, so please be understanding when I say something clueless.
I've never actually read an ebook, but my sister loves them and is encouraging me.
I'm actually an independent publisher of old fashioned, paper books (boo hiss, I know) but trying to move up a century or so.
I've been given electronic distribution rights to an approximately 200 page book that will be of the most interest to people who spend a lot of time on the internet. Since I'm used to dealing with distribution of paper, I have no clue where to begin.
I've visited a few sites that sell ebook compiler software that put the files into either a pdf or .exe file (which seems like a good route since the target audience is computer/internet users). I am obligated by my agreement with the author to somehow protect the content from copying/printing by the purchaser. The primary route of distribution will be email.
I'd love the thoughts and opinions of serious ebook readers.
I can be contacted directly at
mccutct@yahoo.com if you prefer.
If you're interested in seeing our first release (yes, in caveman paper only) you can visit the author's site
www.MenAtHouseWork.com. It is a very funny read written by a stay at home dad.
