More fun with ebooks

[rolanni]

Just upload Misfits: Adventures in the Liaden Universe® Number Fifteen to Barnes and Noble and to Amazon.com. Did the housekeeping on sharonleewriter.com I meant to do yesterday. Deployed the InfoDump. Still managed to avoid the SRM bookkeeping, though.

I did forget to put in the InfoDump -- if you have a chance, we'd take it kindly if you -- you know who you are -- would post a reader review on the bookstore of your choice for the newly-uploaded chapbooks -- or for any of our books, really. Thanks in advance.

And now -- it's what time? Sigh. Now, a sammich, I think, and so to bed. Though not, may I say, early.

chapbook stories at Baen?

[(Anonymous)]

What are the chances of getting the e-books currently going to Amazon & BN also getting published via Baen? I'm from Canada and prefer some of the formats available via Baen since I usually read on my phone instead of a dedicated e-reader.

I'm gonna hafta make a macro for this one, I see.

The current project is about making the SRM chapbooks available in electronic form as they were (and in some cases are) in paper. That being the case, it is Highly Unlikely that Webscriptions will accept a proposition to publish because:

1. Webscriptions historically does not wish to accept "micropayments"

2. Webscriptions historically Does Not Get "chapbook" as a unit of sale.

Additionally --

3. As I understand it, one does not simply upload things to Webscriptions, as one does to, say, Amazon, after creating an account.

Also --

4. Many of the stories (not the chapbooks, but the contents of the chapbooks) are already available from Baen and have been for years, in bundles that make them "big enough," in Webscriptions' opinion, for people to buy.
