Part 2
Ebooks are also immediately obtainable. You don't have to go to a bookstore or search through endless tittles at an online bookstore. All you have to do is download it from a website, and presto! It's on your computer, ready to be read.
Ebooks are interactive. This is one of the most unique and specific qualities that ebooks offer. You can add surveys that need to be filled out, order forms for customers to purchase your products or goods, sound and video that draw your reader into the virtual world of your ebook, even direct links to relevant sites that will expand your ebook outward. The potential is virtually limitless.
Ebooks have a particular kind of permanence that other mediums do not possess. Television shows and radio shows air once, and then may rerun a few times. Ebooks remain on your computer for as long as you choose, and they can even be printed out and stored on the shelves of your traditional home library.
Another wonderful quality is that ebooks have no barriers in terms of publishing. You don't need to go through the endless process of submitting your manuscript over and over again, and once you land an agent, having the agent submit your manuscript over and over again. Nor do you have to shell out thousands of dollars for printing a self-published book. All ebooks require is a writer and appropriate software. Figure out your market, write your ebook, post it on your website, and with the right business savvy, your audience will come to you.
Finally, you have creative control over your ebook. You don't have to compromise with a editor or the publishing trends of the time. You don't have to haggle with a designer or wait for copy edited galleys to arrive by snail mail. You are in complete control of the design and the text.
Look at all the advantages you have when you write an ebook. No one tells you "it is not good enough to be in print." Or "no one will read this." You do not have to deal with all that rejection that you usually get when you try to publish a book.
We enjoy the great comments that you leave, please leave one.
