Well I went and stuck my neck out...

I uploaded and self-published one of my books as an e-book at Amazon.com.  It was surprisingly easy to do, now I just have to sit back and watch how fast it doesn't sell LOL

The whole thing is a little intimidating because I actually used my own name and uploaded the novella (just under 10,000 words it introduces and sort of sets up the series of full length paranormal romances that I'm working on) as it was without sending it to any of my editing people.  I'm quite certain that it's full of SPAG errors, but I actually sort of did it that way on purpose.  Not that I think it's going to be a huge seller, but I'm interested to see if anyone actually buys it how horribly offended they are by my misplacement of commas, etc.

I guess you never know unless you try and you can't win without racing... besides it didn't cost me anything except perhaps my self-confidence if it turns out even worse than I'd imagined and it's kind of cool to be able to go to Amazon, type in my name and have an actual e-book pop up available for purchase.

  2. Okay I couldn't figure out how to post the link here so I posted it to Facebook instead because it had one of those little F share button thingies that I just had to click on. It's amazing how freaking internet illiterate I am.
