This ebook will save you time and money by providing easy to follow guidelines to pre-format your manuscript in a word processing program. You’ll learn what you need to do for a smooth ebook conversion using Amazon’s and B&N’s free Direct Publishing programs.

Don’t commit to the high cost and hassle of going through a conversion/publishing service to process and distribute your ebook—these services charge an upfront fee and take a cut of 10% to 50% of your royalties. Some charge an annual “maintenance fee” to maintain your ebooks on the Internet. This is a ridiculous fee because Amazon and B&N sell approximately 95% of all ebooks sold and their ebook program is absolutely free!!!

When you deal directly with Amazon and B&N you earn up to 70% in royalties from every download. They both pay royalties monthly directly into your checking account and provide a real time online accounting of your ebook sales.

To participate in their programs you need to format your manuscript to remove goofs and glitches that could cause conversion programs to go bonkers. This ebook will show you how to fix potential formatting problems and the ease of using hyperlinks.

The only reference made to programming code is to explain that there isn’t anything about coding in these guidelines. I write in plain English, and explain procedures as: do this, then do that, click here, and presto the formatting preparation process is done. Okay, that’s over simplified.
