My first ebook as an author!
In 2016, I self-published a booklet with two self-contained, previously published excerpts from my sci-fi novel manuscript Secret Insurrection so I would have something to sell whenever I did public readings. Now I have taken the plunge and published an ebook version of that booklet, Secret Insurrection: Stories from a Novel of a Future Time.
It's immediately available on Smashwords and should soon be available on Nook, Kobo, Apple iBooks and online public library services like OverDrive.
Formatting an ebook so it's good enough to be distributed by Smashwords to other retailers is not easy. Smashwords Style Guide by Mark Coker is intimidating to read, but I followed it to the letter and got it all done all by myself, even down to creating the cover. Now I feel a lot more confident in being a micro-publisher.
