    About this ebook

    Why You Should Write e-Books, e-Novels, e-Shorts. (Electronic Publishing versus Traditional Publishing).
    We examine the time and effort required to get a traditionally published book onto the public bookshelf, in comparison to the ‘instant gratification’ of the e-Publishing industry.
    We study the financial aspects and rewards of both processes, and look at the pitfalls of writing for the two, basically similar, industries.
    We look at the process of actually getting your e-Project on line and into the face of your prospective customers.
