    Ooooooh! Informative! Being a novice in this world of writing and publishing, I always read so many articles about how digital publishing is becoming the new norm. I’ve considered turning my (under construction) manuscript into an E-book, but I could never figure out the logistics of pricing and what not. This is really, really helpful! Thanks!!

      Glad to be of assistance, it’s just my thoughts on the matter. Interestingly enough the largest market for eReaders at the moment is the over 45s who are also the largest consumers of fiction.

      This is an interesting article Oli. In terms of CN and Ebooks where are we in terms of allowing a book on CN to be available in this format? Also would this transpire to other readers such as Apple’s Ipad and IPod apps for reading books?

      Hi,

      We’ve got pdf eBook sales which should be coming out of beta this month. This means most eReaders/tablets and phones will be able to purchase, download and read books.

      As far as web and ePub books go we’re looking good to launch the system at the end of the year, I can’t wait!

      Thanks for the update Oli. Will the pdf book option enable automatically for any book published under CN or will we need to manually change it within the manage area for the book?
