Ebook Styles That Work And The Benefits You Can Get #EbooksPublishing





Ebook Styles That Work And The Benefits You Can Get #EbooksPublishing


As a writer, is there anything different when you create an eBook than simply writing a book? Yes there is. You CREATE an eBook, whereas you WRITE a book. That alone makes a whole lot of distinction.

Writing a Book

In writing a book, it's easy to blurt out that you need writing skills. But there are different writing styles for novel length books and those for short articles like in newspaper, blog or website.

One critical quality apart from writing skill is the patience to finish a project. Unlike writing a short article which is really more of a journalistic exercise than a literary one, writing a book is like handling a big project. While writing an article can be spontaneous, often needing little organization of thought and research, writing a book requires a lot of logical thinking.

Any book needs a publisher or anyone who will take a financial and marketing gamble to have your manuscript made into thousands of paperbacks or hardbound books to sell to its target markets.

The publisher is often both an astute businessman and a literary critique who has a say on what needs to be added or edited out in your book In short, you often have to give up complete control if you want to get your book published. Once published, your book often gets a very limited market exposure unless it has been reviewed by noted critics or listed in some esoteric bestseller listing. This way, your book will get worldwide exposure or syndication.

Creating an eBook

On the other hand, just about anyone with a good command of a language can create an eBook. That's right, even housewives with no journalistic or literature degrees can create an eBook. You only need to learn the creation process that eBook publishing applications can do. The writing style in the level of a Hemingway or Dickens is not necessary. The only writing criterion is to be able to bring your message across.

Once you have your eBook manuscript in a word processing tool, you need to get it spruced up with images, video and audio files, animated Flash or GIF files and illustrations. That is why the operative verb for eBooks is 'create.'

It's a production item that is the ultimate mix of what multimedia is about. Of course, you can still limit your eBook to pure text. But even so, coming out with an eBook requires you to create the correct file format your target market can read in their Kindle or iPads. It's really quite simple. You only need to generate a non-editable file like a PDF that any eBook reader or PC can display or a device-specific format like AZW files for Kindle.

Harvesting the eBook Advantage

There's no need for the traditional publisher. You can publish your eBook on your own and you have instant worldwide market exposure. There are countless digital libraries who are only too happy to publish you eBook free and get it featured on their sites.

You can upload your finished PDF eBook files or you can send your raw Word files to them for free conversion and online publication. You can start one with free eBook sites that can get your name noticed. And if your writing and topic catches their attention, your name can soon become as recognizable as a Hemingway on the net.

Free Ebooks - eBooks To Change the Way we Read and Write #EbooksPublishing




Free Ebooks - eBooks To Change the Way we Read and Write #EbooksPublishing

The PC and the internet revolutionized the way we do business and the divertissements we now take for granted at home. They brought a new paradigm that shattered the boundaries separating the home and the office as well as between private and public lives.

With mobile computing now available through laptops and smartphones, they have created a seamless continuity between the two.

Along the way, the convergence of various information and entertainment media has reshaped the way people access, consume and archive data for whatever purpose they have.

The buzzword 'multimedia' has become a common word often abused but rightly used to describe what the consumer gets in his laptop or smartphone or his desktop at home and in the office. It is now a commodity taken for granted like the television and the newspaper were in past.

A Brief History

One latecomer that promises to further bring the benefits of mobile computing and multimedia access to the wired technology world is the eBook. The electronic book has been around since the internet found its way in homes and schools. It was a natural evolution from the word processing prowess of the PC that transformed words into digital bytes that can be created, stored and manipulated any way you want.

Entire books were digitized starting with the promotional product brochures stored in giveaway CDs, downloadable PDF files of manuals and 'how to' references that can be stored and retrieved on the PC. This is around the same time that the MP3 music listening on the iPod became popular to this day.

It was also natural to get PCs and laptops to view and read these PDF files whose pages resemble those of books.

But books continued to flourish and have, in fact, made online bookstores like Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other e-retailers of the physical printed book thrive successfully. For sure, the eBooks had been making inroads and there were PDAs and Pocket PCs before with large displays that allow you to read references and manuals that are uploaded to these devices.

But eBook reading really took off when the Kindle and the iPad and host of other gadgets designed primarily to display the pages of an eBook like what you'd see in a printed book, was offered to the public.

Today, the buzzword is viral marketing using free eBooks that not only have made reading classics and titles of great literature easily obtainable from digital libraries, but opens up a new way of writing as a promotional media to get visitors to your website.

Writing an eBook

Creating an eBook takes writing to a higher plane that requires some internet and technical savvy. Great writing skills that are valued by publishers in the past is no longer a crucial asset in making an eBook that will be used as a marketing media rather than a literary or journalistic one.

You only need a decent command of the language and some artistic flair to design the pages. However, getting the right keywords about your subject and getting them linked to related websites or blogs can make your eBook more exposed and popular.

Top 5 eBook Apps for iPad and iPhone #EbooksPublishing



Top 5 eBook Apps for iPad and iPhone #EbooksPublishing

Apple iPads and iPhones are great devices for reading ebooks. There are many ebook reading apps available for you to choose from, and they're free! This article will introduce you to some of the most popular apps and give some suggestions on where you can find some ebooks for it. All of these apps can be downloaded from iTunes for free.

1. Apple iBooks App for iPad and iPhone

The iBooks app is the most native Apple ebook reading application that you'll be able to find for the iPad and iPhone. It currently has a 3.5/4 rating from reviewers in iTunes. If you are new to ebooks and you have an iPad, this app will be a good place for you to start. Since it is so integrated into the device, you won't have to worry about using any external software. You can also use it to read your own PDF files.

Where to find ebooks: iBooks includes Apple's iBookStore, where you can purchase ebooks and then download them directly to your iPad or iPhone. It's very similar to downloading music from iTunes, so if you're familiar with that, you'll be downloading ebooks in no time.

2. Amazon Kindle App for iPad and iPhone

The Kindle App was created by Amazon to allow you to read your Kindle ebooks on devices other than a Kindle. If you can't find an ebook in iBooks, you might be able to find it on Amazon for the Kindle. This way, you can make use of Amazon's large ebook selection on your iPad without having to buy a separate Kindle e-reader. The Kindle App will let you start reading on one device, and pick up where you left off on another device. Amazon has many classic books available for free that you can access through the app.

Where to find ebooks: The Kindle App is made to be used with Kindle ebooks that you purchase from Amazon. Find those in Amazon's Kindle Store.

3. Kobo App for iPad and iPhone

Kobo has free e-reading apps for both iPad and iPhone. You can use these apps to read ebooks that you've purchased from Kobo, even if you don't have a Kobo eReader. You can search for ebooks, buy them, and download directly to your device with the Kobo app.

Where to find ebooks: If you're planning on using the Kobo app, then you should buy ebooks from Kobo. You can download the ebooks directly with the Kobo app, or you can find them online.

4. Barnes & Noble Nook App for iPad and iPhone

The Nook App from Barnes & Noble lets you read all of the Nook ebooks on your iPad or iPhone, without having to own a Nook eReader. Barnes & Noble's Nook system is unique in that it will let you lend ebooks with their "LendMe" software. You can also sample any of the Nook books for free before you buy.

Where to find ebooks: If you want to read ebooks using the Nook App, then you should get ebooks from Barnes & Noble's Nook store.

5. Bluefire Reader App for iPad and iPhone

Bluefire Reader is the best ebook reading solution for using Adobe DRM ebooks on the iPad and iPhone. This app works with Adobe's "Content Server" which means you can use it to read DRM-protected PDF and EPUB ebooks on your iPad and iPhone. This requires "authorizing" the reader with an Adobe ID just like you would on a Sony Reader, Nook, or other e-reader devices. Library ebooks can also be read with this app (where available).

Where to find ebooks: You can use Adobe PDF and EPUB ebooks from just about any ebook retailer. This is great because it means that you're not tied to iBooks, Amazon, or any other specific ebook seller.

All of the apps above are excellent choices for reading ebooks on your iPad or iPhone. I recommend iBooks for those who are new to ebooks, and I recommend Bluefire Reader for those who are more familiar with using apps and transferring files between their computer and iPad or iPhone. No matter your level of technological skill, there is a solution for you.
