And why not?  Smashwords is the largest distributor of selfpublished e-books in the world. Embracing 40,000 authors' works which are represented in 100,000 books(and growing), this is an on-going, day to day example of tremendous e-book success.      The secrets havebeen gleaned from the best practices of the most commercially successfulauthors at Smashwords.     I personally likethe common sense, honest, and yet thoughtfully detailed, and very modestvaluable advice book this book truly is.       Many Smashwordsauthors have landed in the top ten bestseller lists of major e-book retailers.Mark explains in his book, and notes that some also are new New York Timese-book bestsellers.      I, myself, anovice in all things publishing, nonetheless, applaud this latest effort ofMark Coker to explain these very difficult concepts. I was very excited as Istarted reading this, realizing, for me it is a jewel which I am very glad Ifound. I think it is a how-to manual which I will keep easily accessible like Idid the style guides I kept on my desk while trying to work my way through thecollege essay classes of my past.Thanks Mark Coker for this timely how to book on writing andpublishing. Something wonderful shall surely come of this sharing project ofyours.
