STEP BY STEP ON HOW TO PUBLISH MY EBOOK ON ROYALTY

Please can someone help me on step by step on how to publish and distribute my eBook on no fee , but on royalty.

Distribution in Australia

We published our first book about 7 months ago (using CreateSpace) and it is selling well in the US market. We would like to distribute the book in Australia. Can anyone provide any guidance on good printers and distributors in Australia?

Also, is there a major eBook distributor in Australia or do Amazon and Apple cover most of that space in Australia too?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Cheers!

Apple Squeeze on eBooks?

With the huge popularity of the iPad, not least as a book reading device, it seems that Apple are now looking to put the squeeze on their competitors by restricting eBook sales that don't go through their own store:

Buzz began Tuesday morning when The New York Times said that Sony’s e-reader app had been rejected, citing Apple’s restriction on in-app book purchases. This in itself was not a new policy — Apple doesn’t allow apps to sell content to users unless that content passes through the official Apple ecosystem, where Apple gets a 30 percent cut.

Apple also allegedly told Sony that the app couldn’t access content purchased on other Sony Reader devices, which is where most of the outrage was focused. Amazon’s Kindle app and Barnes & Noble’s Nook app are both popular mechanisms for users to download and read books that they have purchased from the respective stores. Many feared that this supposed change in Apple policy would take their e-books away from their iPads, iPhones and iPod touches.

Apple’s second statement indicates that this is indeed the case — sort of. If an app lets users access content that they purchased via Amazon’s website, for example, then that same app must also let users buy the same book via Apple’s own in-app purchase system. If the app developer doesn’t want to use Apple’s in-app purchases to sell content, then the app can’t access content purchased elsewhere either.

This is notable because it will require Amazon and Barnes & Noble (as well as Sony, whose iOS app is not yet available) to change how their offerings work. Apple wants its 30 percent share of content sales whenever possible.

Wonder if the new Android 3.0 tablets could put a dent in Apple's plans though, if they provide a more open system for users to access books?

The Rise and Rise of eBooks

Can you see a trend in these quarterly statistics on eBook sales aggregated by the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF)?

Not surprising given the debut of devices such as Amazon's Kindle and Apple's iPad. It will be interesting to see whether the trend continues as tablets and e-readers become more ubiquitous.

The Future of Books

A thought-provoking video from Ideo regarding the future of the book (which seems to concentrate mainly on eBooks and touch tablets):

What do you think we'll be seeing in the future of books?

Tablet Explosion

The influx of new eReaders continues with the explosion in the touch tablet market - in the past fortnight two new 'big' players have entered the market. First Samsung announced their Galaxy tablet running Android, and then this week Blackberry announced their own long-rumoured 'Blackpad', now officially known as the PlayBook. Certainly seems that tablets (and thus eReaders) will soon be ubiquitous.
