Answers every question!
I have an E-Book under construction and was considering abandoning the project because of all the conflicting, confusing, self-serving blather I uncovered as I looked for a simple tutorial. Ali Luke, the author, saved the project! Her clear information and cogent advice paved the way for my dream. Just look at the image of the "Publishing E-Books" cover, top left; "Making Everything Easier" Well, she did, and I am most grateful to escape the mountain of self-serving Marketing hype disguised as tutorial assistance, that clogs the path to information and progress. My E-Book may never see the light of day; but thanks to this simple guide to publishing an E-Book, at least my project has a chance. Thank You Ali !Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu
