Word Prostitute® has published The Detective Store with wordprostitute.com using HTML and with amazon.com using the Kindle format. A format that was used after Word Prostitute® took its format standards and used the format standards of Amazon Kindle to frame the text files of The Detective Store.
The book publishing process of Amazon shows that Amazon has potential to be a book seller that sells books for it is easy to sell books with Amazon. First you need to create an account. Then after you have an account you have to create a product, a good, a book. Then once the book is created then you need to publish the book to Amazon and wait.
The publishing to Amazon has three steps. Enter Product Details, Upload & Preview Book, Enter Price. Enter Product Details is book information. If you have ever read an entire book published in the United States of America then you should be aware of ISBN Numbers and writer and editor and subject and therefor able to Enter Product Details. Upload & Preview Book step is where you upload and view on an HTML template with a web application that is supposed to look like the Kindle. The Kindle recommends HTML, but you can use other document types. Word Prostitute® tried to publish the PDF version of Lacivious with the Kindle publishing process and the result viewed through the test application for the Kindle returned something bad, so use HTML. If you know basic HTML then you should be able to publish okay books and learn to publish good books with their printing service. The process was complete before it began, but knowing HTML helped and having already having written in text files all the words and space of The Detective Store Word Prostitute® was able to format and publish with ease. Enter Price part is easy just remember you only get 35 percent. And remember Amazon likes to take 20 percent off the suggested price.
Read the terms of service.
And get to know HTML and the few Amazon Kindle tags to help format the book.
After 96 hours the book was published. Around hour 24 they had the template with the cover. Around hour 48 they had the synopsis.
Word Prostitute® owns no kindle, so the final product has yet to be viewed. Regardless, Word Prostitute® believes the HTML version it published is better than the Kindle version.
Amazon feels to care about the words, but like all technology it needs to be refined.
Word Prostitute® is a little upset at the fact the publisher only gets 35 percent of the of the profit from any sale. Thirty-five percent is low. Word Prostitute® is hopeful as more people enter the electric book hardware selling market that Amazon will increase the amount of money it gives the publisher after Amazon sells the publisher’s book.
The Kindle does have the most potential because of the way Amazon has set how to sell and buy electric books. Sony’s ebook site so far has not sent an email reading that they at least received Word Prostitute®’s request to publish The Detective Store upon their site to sell words to users of their electric book hardware.
