Turn your blog posts into ebooks

Turn your blog posts into ebooks Review



If you're a blogger who has produced lots of great content on your website, this book is for you. You may not know it, but you are sitting on a gold mine. Your readers are there on the web, and you may have found ways to connect to them there. But what about people who don't spend much time on their computers, and are looking for the kinds of things you write to load onto their Kindles? Why miss out on a huge audience who -- right now -- is looking for your work?

The Kindle is ripe for a very wide range of new creations. Take a moment and think of yourself as a curator. A curator in a museum knows a lot about some special area of art or history or anthropology (whatever the museum is), and they know quite a bit about what's out there that the public might want to come see. The curator goes and finds what she or he feels is the most interesting collection to juxtapose in a room for the visitor to come and see. Juxtaposition. That's the essence of good creative publishing. That's what newspapers do so beautifully (and sometimes with hilarious results). You take this, and you put that next to it, then you put that underneath, and that above. Juxtaposition changes how we think about all of the elements.

Today, the do-it-yourself ebook publishing world is shaping into a lively industry, blossoming out of the decay of broken traditional publishing models. The industry is full of entrepreneurs and innovators. Just like everything on the web, there's a hefty layer of undeveloped debris we sometimes have to wade through to get to the good stuff. The bright side is that authors are learning better techniques every day to reach their own readers. Much of this "reaching" is a form of curation being performed by diligent website entrepreneurs like World Lit Cafe, Independent Authors Network, and hundreds of other sites which help readers find the good content they seek.

In this ebook you'll discover how simple it is to organize your excellent content into a new product and publish it on Kindle.
