If you want to be a successful ebook author then you should really have a good understanding of the and of how to publish Kindle ebooks. More ebooks are being read today on Kindles than on any other ebook reader. What is the Kindle? The Kindle is currently the most popular portable ebook reading device in USA with around 70-80% of marketshare. This ebook reader is made by Amazon and can store as many as 3,500 books. Readers can use their Kindle to browse, purchase ebooks and other digital documents, then download these files for reading.
At only 8.7 ounces a new Kindle weighs less than a paperback. The screen on the latest Kindles simulates real paper as closely as possible using. You can even read a Kindle screen in bright sunlight.
The Kindle is also environmentally friendly. In addition to saving paper and all those trees, they use precious little power. A single charge can last for weeks.
Experimental features on the newest Kindles (Kindle 3) include Text-to-Speech (your Kindle will read aloud to you), listening to music, and browsing the web with a very basic web browser. The first Kindle was released in November 2007 and cost $399. While many readers may have been reluctant to pay so much, the latest models are more affordable at $139 and $189. What is the Difference between the Kindle Wi-Fi and 3G+Wi-Fi? The biggest consideration for people who decide to buy a Kindle is whether to get the Kindle 3 Wi-Fi or 3G+Wi-Fi model. They are almost the same model with one important difference: • The Kindle Wi-Fi can connect to the Internet via any accessible Wi-Fi hotspot, for example at your local cafe or library.
• The Kindle 3G+Wi-Fi can connect to the Internet via any accessible Wi-Fi hotspot and also via the 3G network which mobile phones use. That means you can connect from almost anywhere as long as there is suitable 3G coverage in your location. By extension that also give you free Internet access via 3G using the Kindle browser. A question for ebook authors How many of you still don’t own an ebook reader? If you are an author without an ebook reader then it’s time you considered getting one. Apart from the environmental benefits and accessibility you really should be familiar with this technology.
Can’t Afford a Kindle? Let’s face it, we’re not all JK Rowling or Amanda Hocking when it comes to revenue from our writing. So if you cannot afford a Kindle then there is still a way for you to try out the “Kindle experience” – by downloading the free application.
With Kindle for PC you can browse the, purchase – or even download for free – some Kindle ebooks, and read them on your PC screen instead of a real Kindle. It’s not quite the same thing, but if you want to experience what your readers are doing with Kindles then this is better than nothing. How Do You Write for the Kindle? Writing ebooks for the Kindle is not any different to writing a book or ebook for any other platform except that you should give special consideration to formatting your manuscript. With Microsoft’s Word, for example, you should keep the formatting of your text as simple as possible. The reason is that the process of converting your document to Kindle’s format is often mucked up by fancy formatting in a document.

Indentations, bold characters, italics and headings, are all fine, as these will translate into your Kindle book. Don’t use bullet points, special fonts, headers, and footers. It is a good idea to create two versions of your manuscript.
One with fancy layouts and lettering that may be used for PDFs and other formats, and another simple version of your manuscript with the “basics”. We intend to cover the conversion process including complications with PDFs in another article soon.
