5 Steps in Writing & Selling Your First E-book
Wayne Perkins
What is an e-book?
An e-book is simply a digital file that contains content that entertains, enlightens or
inspires your reader. It can be 5 pages long or 2500 pages long. It can be a complete book
that uses all of the old fashioned elements of book publishing or an E-book can be a truly
creative piece of work. An e-book could be a speech, a series of speeches, a poem, a
series of poems, recipes or series of recipes and "how to instructions. E-books can
also be short stories like Stephen King's "Riding the Bullet." E-books can
contain sound, video and animation or they can resemble a typical paperback book. Look up
on Amazon.com and check out the top 100 books and see if you can tie in your e-book to a
topic area of one of the bestsellers. Write it just like you would write a letter. You do
not need any special formatting.
2. Save your e-book as in Microsoft word as a doc. File...text file...and html file
3. Set up an account with Infopost.com. They will host your file and give you a free
website page to include your description, reviews, pricing and any other information.

processing and allow you to post sample chapters or excerpts of your e-books.
4. Follow the directions on listing your e-book, including the description, pricing and
sample chapter and then up-load your e-book to Infopost.com
