Publishing An E-Book: A Checklist
Have I convinced you yet that you should publish an e-book? I hope so, because if you have a dusty manuscript in a drawer, a collection of short stories or even a novella that is good enough to get out there, you should seriously consider e-publishing it. This doesn’t have to have anything to do with your “main” writing career, be it established, in process or aspirational (although of course it can, if you want it to) – you can always release them under a pen name. No one has to know it’s you, unless you want them to. Alternatively you could use e-books as a stepping stone, a kind of advertisement, or to build that – I hate saying this, but we all know it’s relevant these days – good old author platform. Whatever way you choose to use it, e-books can really help to keep you in ink cartridges. So what do you need to do to publish an e-book? (Of course, this is just what I did, and I’m not saying it’s definitive or comprehensive or even coherent. 1. 2. Your cover: 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
eBooks
Why eBooks? English and Language Arts teachers have their students write in various genres – narrative, creative fiction, first person accounts, poetry, and more – as they investigate stories, characters, and history. However, student work is usually limited to the printed word, possibly enhanced by images and diagrams, and only seen by the author and evaluator. In 21st society the dominance of conventional, linear text of the last few centuries is eroding and quickly giving way to multimodal communication, with a screen-based, non-linear, and visual emphasis. With the advent of eBooks, students can not only read content electronically but produce interactive written work of their own, complete with images, audio and video, and interactive hyperlinks. Searching for eBooks Along with having students create eBooks as a demonstration of their learning and understanding, eBooks can also be used to enhance the teaching and learning in your classroom. eBooks Tools & Resources eBooks Examples
