Fiona, what is inspiring is that you are bright enough to be taking your book away from a traditional publisher to 'go it alone.' For years my books were rejected by traditional publishers, and I realize that has been a blessing in disguise. To be able to design my own book covers and website and to sell books myself has been such a joy. Okay, not financially rewarding yet - but all things in time. This is the future! Pat yourself on the back for having the courage, and intelligence, to do what you are doing.

It seems to restrict readers but not those intent on copyright infringement. So, I'll be clicking 'no' to DRM.<br />Thanks.Fiona Pearsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00322089620930374315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4976672479621832457.post-62381587701906308812013-11-14T12:51:07.036+00:002013-11-14T12:51:07.036+00:00Hi Fiona -

I just read this piece - a dialog between two successful authors - which contains a lot of good input on the merits of self-publishing ebooks. I'm now running an online bookstore to manage my own books - not yet selling so many, but it is fun having complete control. Best of luck!
