Free eBooks for Read an eBook Week

In honor of Read an eBook Week, some of my Kindle Formatting clients have graciously allowed me to offer their books as free downloads. The downloads are DRM-free Mobipocket files, which can be uploaded to an Amazon Kindle using the USB cable or via e-mail, or they can also be read on your PC or any other Mobipocket-supported device. Drop by the web page and take a look at the great titles that will be available next week!

NOTE: These books will be available for download only during the week of March 8-14.


Update: The books are now up, and the number has increased to 29! Enjoy!

Update 2: The free eBook downloads promotion for Read an eBook Week was a great success! A total of 7,200 downloads were fulfilled, and more than 4,000 visitors came by the site. Thank you to all of the authors and publishers who allowed me to make their books available and to everyone who dropped by and supported the promotion.

Kindle on the iPhone

Amazon has announced the availability of Kindle for the iPhone. This new iPhone and iPod Touch application has the ability to sync up with the books you have purchased on the Kindle via Whispersync, so you can continue reading when you don't have your Kindle around. I just wanted to make sure you all know about this great option that increases the sales opportunities for authors and publishers publishing on the Kindle. There are instructions in Amazon's help files.

After spending much time researching how to format ebooks for Amazon Kindle, we decided to give Joshua a try. We were very pleased with the quick turnaround, and ease of using the service. He was able to answer a lot of questions and his expertise with ebook formats really stood out. He helped us achieve the look we wanted with the ebook, even when faced with limitations with Kindle. Not only does he offer great service, but he also offers reasonable prices. We will definitely use his services again in the future.
