March 7-13, 2010 is Read an E-Book Week. Several eBook stores and authors will be offering eBooks at reduced prices (including free!). If you’re looking to buy some eBooks, or want to try out new authors without spending a bundle, next week will be a good time to look around.
The Read an E-Book Week site has a list of participating stores and authors. You can also grab free PDF files from my site, Rymellan Fiction, if you want to check out a story. They aren’t nicely formatted, though; they’re basically the Word files saved as PDFs. During Read an E-book Week, you can get the first eight stories, formatted for eReaders, from Smashwords, at half-price (you can get them all the time at half-price by using coupon code HL36R).
On the subject of eBooks, Aaron Shepard came across a job posting on Apple’s site that strongly suggests that Apple is interested in having small and self-publishers bring their books to the iPad, so that’s good news!
Have a great weekend!
