Six weeks after being inspired by both Amazon’s sales announcement and a half hour of bending Brian’s ear, I’m ready. Thanks to the discovery that I own much of the content I’ve written over the past five years, and the investigative powers of my trusty assistant Skadi, I’ve put together my first 4 eBooks.
7 steps to: Boosting your career ($2.99)
7 Steps to: Balancing work and play ($2.99)
7 Steps to: A healthier life ($2.99)
World Yoga Festivals Guide, 2011 (.99c)
Over the next twelve months, I’ll be publishing books that stick to my main areas of expertise: travel, environment, wellbeing and career. Some (like those above) will be themed collections of work previously published in newspapers like the Sydney Morning Herald, or magazines like Yoga Journal Australia. Others will be new (unpublished) work.
My aim is to be transparent about both the process and the results. If you stick around long enough, this blog will help you discover the tips and traps of publishing (and selling) eBooks, through my own journey of discovery.
As a bonus, you’ll also get to watch a successful journalist either turn into a bestselling eBook author OR discover that eBooks are actually a big time waster, and that print is king after all.
Please, feel free to post comments, tips and let me know what I am doing right or wrong. And of course, feel free to buy the books. (Rule #1 of eBook promotion, plug your books wherever you can. Given that I usually only have to write, not promote, I suspect I may find this aspect of the process a little confronting.)
