I have had quite a lot of short fiction published, and I'm sticking to traditional publishing for most of my fiction, but I have a few things I wrote over the years with the idea of playing with web publishing. I never got around to doing anything with them, but now I'm going to experiment with some ebook publishing.

I know this is growing too fast for there to be a norm, but I am curious about what to expect.
Len Edgerly's guest on his The Reading Edge podcast tonight might be someone you'd be interested in looking into:

His name is Rusty Shelton of Phenix & Phenix Literary Publicists, and it sounds like they may have some useful information for someone in your position with an established record of publishing accomplishments looking to branch out into a new medium. Good luck!
