I think it's friends who wanted to support me but didn't have kindles. It's a new way to get it out there though. I think you should give it a try. If you're reasonably tech-savvy (and you must be, having formatted for kindle) then it doesn't take too long to figure it out. You've done the hard work (writing!) already, so why not? I would imagine I'll still sell more eBooks than paperbacks for Late, but Strange Ideas might be different as it's a chunkier book and people like that. How exciting!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00823779452137804886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6890555397997323389.post-27619932343572281982013-04-10T15:26:42.276+01:002013-04-10T15:26:42.276+01:00I still haven't gone down the Createspace rout...I still haven't gone down the Createspace route yet - I'd be interested to hear whether you sell more as paperback or for kindle.

Formatting the book was fun (apart from the uploading bit), but formatting for Kindle is way easier.

It is much easie...Congrats on your first paperback!<br />It is much easier to upload a pdf than a word doc on Createspace.<br />Do not even get me started on Smashword's meatgrinder though. I am still having flashbacks/nightmares about that one. And I still didn't get it 100% perfect.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
