But I do think the practicality of delaying the others for a couple months while I learn the formatting might balance. And the trouble with the iPad stuff is I can't upload unless I own a mac of some sort (which just strikes me as wrong)--I may be able to find one to borrow, but it's impossible to format for iTunes except on a Mac Machine.Hart Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17599570189253229318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127677169344207651.post-1007130199106415582013-07-29T13:08:56.753-04:002013-07-29T13:08:56.753-04:00Nice pics.

I have the app on my iPad, but I still prefer the iBookstore. (Also because I have a life's supply of iTunes gift cards.) But you have to do what will work best for your series.Alex J.

However, writer/publisher/marketer/distributor/retailer is maybe beyond me. <br /><br />I think I understand the attraction. As I slog through my plotting exercise right now,I'm not sure I could face it if release management were at the end of the line.<br /><br />Watch. Learn.

Kindle is where 70%+ of all e-book sales come from, so I say go with it and eat the elephant one bite at a time after that. You can be learning formatting for the other mediums during your 90 days.
