Update your Kindle books

I recently made some major changes to my first Inspector Skelgill novel, Murder in Adland.

I tried to buy the new edition - to update my Kindle - however the Amazon system kept telling me I already owned it!

It all sounds crazy - but of course Amazon are much smarter than this - although it took a reader to kindly point out to me what to do.

Here are the steps:

- log in to your Amazon account
- click on the tab that says 'Your Account' - over towards the top right
- this opens a drop-down menu
- on this menu click on 'Manage Your Content & Devices'
- this opens a new page with 3 tabs - it should already be showing 'Your Content'
- scroll down your list of e-books
- opposite 'Murder in Adland' there should be an alert telling you an update is available
- click on this and after a while it should replace the old edition on your Kindle

There is no charge for this - and the same process applies for all those books that have updates waiting.

Handy to know, I thought.
