Sex and the Zen of Shopping now in COLOR ebook for Kindle Fire
April 27, 2013 at 9:53 pm 4 comments
Now available! Full color ebook for Kindle Fire or equivalent.
I’M EXCITED! Technology has caught up!
Now I can offer Sex and the Zen of Shopping in a full color Kindle ebook that looks exactly like the color print copy.
We were able to create this Kindle edition with a new software that will revolutionize epublishing for picture book and how-to authors.
The costs of Amazon print-on-demand for color are steep. I’d say prohibitive in today’s market. I really disliked the $25 we had to charge for my shopping book, Sex and the Zen of Shopping: Live Rich by Shopping Smart.
This is, after all, a book about bargain shopping!
Until this latest Kindle technology, the best solution was to produce a Black & White Bargain print edition.
You can now get the layout, the embedded text and the vivid color of photos in an ebook! You’ll see exactly the same format as the print edition – IF you have a Kindle Fire, an equivalent tablet or Kindle for PC.
Check it out. There are sample pages you can “leaf through” here: Amazon Sex and Zen of Shopping Kindle Version.
Caution: This Kindle Fire edition is for tablets and Kindle for PC only. It will not work on older Kindle readers.

Hooray. This whole e-publishing is really amazing. Game changer, for sure.

I’d call it a double-edged sword. On the one hand, the author has power over getting her work out into the world. On the other, there are millions doing it – or on the verge of it.
I’ve got a feeling the whole concept of literature is changing. Before ebooks, it was necessary both to write well AND tell a good story. Now you can tell a good story and hang the good writing. We are going the way of TV.
But alas, I shall not fret. Self-publishing has allowed me to use all my passions – writing, interior layout, covers. A book is a total project for me. I get to create EVERYTHING! 🙂

Great Sandra and Jesper!! With the right promotion this could fly off the digi-shelves! Can you get a sponsor, say one in each metro area or something like that? Maybe you could give away a copy to each store owner and let them see how good it is before they advertise. JIM

Not sure what you mean by sponsor. But you always spawn great ideas. Sure this one is good too!
