Never Ceese PDF DRM free and personalized!

The future is here. Publishing is changing and publishers no longer have to depend on or even worry about seeking a distributor to get their work out there because the only thing distributors can offer small publishers and self-pubbed authors presently is nothing that the publisher can't do themselves and are already set up to do.

Examples?

Barnes & Noble and Amazon will now allow (oh how sweet of them) for small pubbed and self-pubbed authors to list their e-books in their on-line bookstores. And for that you pay them a percentage of sales to help thwart the cost (there is no cost really) of going through the process of making your book file DRM exclusive which customers hate. Oh yeah, they also handle sales transactions which small publishers already know how to do?

Has everyone forgotten that Barnes & Noble and all the other chain bookstores are the very ones who made it impossible for small publishers and self-pubbed publishers to get in their stores? Why in the world would any small press go there to list their e-book especially when they can list it themselves on their own site and get all the money from sales.

I do understand that some self-pubbed authors could benefit from the distributor handling the sales transactions but find an e-book distributor that offers your e-book to all platforms. Smashwords.com is a nice site for this and they understand what their job is.

But wait a minute! This blog is about ME!!!

You will notice a nice little addition to my sidebar on the right. It is a DRM free PDF of Never Ceese for you, the customer, to convert at will! That's right, I'm actually encouraging you to take the PDF to convert it to whatever format you need. I'll even go one step further and convert it for you if the task seems to daunting. Just let me know what format you'd like.

ALSO, the PDF will be signed and personalized. HOW COOL IS THAT! You can't beat that with a stick. This is only for the e-book you buy from the link above.

ALSO and by the end of the day I hope, I'll have things ironed out with Black Bed Sheet Books to INCLUDE this DRM free PDF with every print book purchase!!!!! Actually, if you buy a print copy from me from the link I'm about to add, (patience I'll get it up in a minute) I'll go ahead and throw the DRM free, personalized PDF in as a package deal.

So there ya go.

Stop looking to sites like Barnes & Noble and Amazon to help you as far as distribution goes. You're feeding the very folks who never recognized small press or self-pubbed authors as anything other than a nuisance. Actually, as far as I can tell, that hasn't changed. There are tons of other e-book distributors out there who will respect you.

All for now. ;)
