    Selling eBook - Easy?

    Selling eBook - Easy?

    I see quite a few videos on YouTube, Insta, and TikTok where bunch of people talking about "selling ebook".

    One thing they usually start with is, "writing an ebook."

    You don't write an "ebook." You write a "book!!!" Once you write your book, your book is converted into an ebook, which is usually an "ePUB!!!"

    I gave an overall info as to where you can sell your ebooks in this video.

    I also gave a brief information regarding the book preparation process for you to successfully sell it.

    1. YOU DO NOT "WRITE AN EBOOK," YOU WRITE "A BOOK"

    2. OUT OF MILLIONS OF BOOKS ON THE MARKET, "SELLING EBOOK" REQUIRES YOU TO BRING PEOPLE TO YOUR SALES PAGE, WHICH IS CALLED MARKETING & ADVERTISING!

    Watch the video to get your knowledge on reality of book publishing.

    Book Review: Dimensions by Leif J. Erickson

    Book Review: Dimensions by Leif J. Erickson

    Have you ever travelled between continents? How about between dimensions? Get ready to join the protagonist of the book, Matt Levier, as he faces a challenge – jumping from one dimension to another – to save his beloved sister from unknown captors. “Bravery isn’t simply doing the hard thing, bravery is standing up in a face of fear of moving on anyway”, the author says. Matt must grasp this lesson as he confronts his fears to rescue Libby. Meeting the Knights of Shiloh, Matt learns that his sister is alive, and they can help set her free. They also share stories of the Syndicate, that is trying to capture different dimensions including Earth and Nazarene. The tragedy of Nazarene is that the wireless network of Earth for internet and phones are a poison for the Shadows. It killed millions of people; ten billion people were reduced to a scant five thousand. The Lord of Shadows seeks revenge and Earth destruction.

    The Syndicate aims to capture and control all dimensions. They declared themselves the Unified Dimensional Syndicate. As the Syndicate spans hundreds of dimensions, the next in line are Nazarene and Earth. However, the Lord of Shadows has another plan which does not correspond with the one of The Syndicate.

    The Knights of Shiloh got involved in the confrontation when they saw all the poor things The Syndicate was doing to people from dimensions. They intervene to help those affected by the Syndicate, offering them freedom in dimensions beyond its control.

    As all these forces meet, there is no way for others to survive. Earth has its days counted – if not captured by the Syndicate and its bloody regime, it will be destroyed by the Shadows. Matt and the Knights of Shiloh embark on a journey to rescue his sister and possibly save the Earth. Can they succeed? Who will triumph and will the Earth endure? A reader will find answers to all these questions in the book “Dimensions. First Jump” By Leif J. Erickson.

    Book Review: But I'm Eponine by Christine Dzidrums

    Book Review: But I'm Eponine by Christine Dzidrums

    This is a professional presentation written with a young audience in mind. The main character, Lyric is a sophomore in high school with a hidden talent, her voice.  When her friends convince her to try out for the school play, she wins a lead role in Les Miserables. She should be on the top of the world, but Lyric is struggling.

    Lyric’s mother, an actress and singer, has died leaving a huge hole. Lyric and her brother go to live with an Aunt and Uncle who are also trying to determine what their new lifestyle entails. Supporting characters include some wonderful friends, Lyric’s first real friends, and the typical variety of teens found in most school environments.

    As shy Lyric tries to transverse the tangled web of high school, the reader has an insider view of texts, conversations, and drama surrounding the students trying to present Les Miserables. The author gives small glimpses of the play to help the reader see what is happening both on and off the stage.

    This is a story that will resonate with high school and young adult readers.

    Philipp Munzer - Author for Top 20 Amazon Best Selling Sci-Fi Books

    Philipp Munzer - Author for Top 20 Amazon Best Selling Sci-Fi Books

    philipp-munzerEvery author has a process when it comes to writing books. But Philipp's writing process is interesting and worth learning. No wonder how his books took place in Amazon top 20 in the sci-fi category with over 200 reviews of 4.5!

    Needless to mention, what he keeps in mind while he is writing to keep to story and the plot intact is a different ballgame, on the side. It is a German idiom, "Roter Faden" for authors :)

    His upcoming books are a little different than his current best sellers, as he is about to launch the first one of the series. Thanks to his generosity, he even gave us some insight of the new books.

    Her book that won an award, "Cast No Shadow" will be published in a few weeks, yet you can see three of her books on the following pages of our blog:

    How To Prepare a Book Marketing Plan

    How To Prepare a Book Marketing Plan

    Before you ready your marketing plan, you must make some preparations. Yes, make some preparations to be prepared to do an effective book marketing!

    I segmented these activities into four time slots, and all the important preparations that you must do within these time slots to be ready for the last one: Launch Week!

    So, how do you get your book prepared for an effective promotion?

    Getting it ready for your readers is one thing but getting it ready for promotion is another.

    Will I Make Money From My First Book? Why Trads Rejects Most Books?

    Will I Make Money From My First Book? Why Trads Rejects Most Books?

    It is so often that new authors have the same question as to how much money they will be making from their first book.

    My answer is always the same, and always indicate that being an author is same as starting a business... which is an investment!

    On the same note, most authors wonder why the traditional publishing companies reject most of the books.

    It actually goes back to the same principal... investment!
