My E-Book Production Process

Over at Christina Katz's blog, I
offer an inside look at how I produced my e-book, The
Future of Publishing . Here's a snippet:

Writing an e-book that is high-enough quality
to charge money for is not an easy undertaking. You must have had some concerns at
the outset. Would you be willing to share some of them?

Yes, I had 3 primary concerns.



1. Even if by reading the entire work you had a better understanding of the issues
at play in the publishing industry, I was still writing humor. Humor is not something
people often pay for, no matter how high quality it is.



2. People will pay good money for information that benefits them. But they rarely
pay for speculation—at least in the publishing field! And since I was writing about
the future of publishing, what else could my e-book be called except pure speculation?



3. I knew the work would be quite short, especially given the fast turn-around time.
It ended up being 40 pages, and that's with images and a generous design. (Still,
though, it probably takes 20-30 minutes to read.)
