How to Publish Your eBook in One Day

Now you are going to learn my 5-Step method in publishing your first eBook.

Here is my quick 5-Step Method of publishing your first eBook. You will publish your first eBook within a few hours of reading this chapter.

Does this sound exciting? I think so. Let us begin!

Step One: Create a document on your computer. How big should the document be? Lets start out with 5-25 pages.

The document could be one of your best speeches, a food recipe, a short story or a step by step instruction like a "how to book" with behavioral objectives in mind.

My top selling eBook titled How To Hypnotize People and Other Living Things, for example, is only 36 pages long but outsells my 193 page eBook by a 3 to 1 ratio! People want concise and useful information and they want it delivered quickly.

Step Two: Save your document as a Microsoft Word document, an ASCII text tile, or an Adobe Acrobat PDF file.

Step Three: Connect to the Internet and go to Mightywords.com at

http://www.mightywords.com.

Register on Mightywords.com and read the directions on how to post your wonderful eBook to their website. If you want to upload your eBooks as Adobe Acrobat PDF files and  you  do  not  want  to  purchase  the  software  yet,  you  can  follow  the  links  on Mightywords that will lead you to a free Adobe formatting site. Look for a section that says "Writers Corner" and you will find free access to Adobe On-line where you can format a limited number of eBooks for free. The link to free Adobe formatting is at:

http://cpdf1.adobe.com/

You can format a few eBooks for free and/or subscribe to formatting un-limited files for only a $9.99 per month subscription fee.

You can also purchase the Adobe Acrobat Software at any computer software store and most Internet bookstores.

I purchased my Adobe Acrobat Software right from Fatbrain.com, which is the parent company for Mightywords.com.

The address of Fatbrain.com is:

http://www.fatbrain.com

Step Four: Follow Mighty Word's directions about adding pricing and commentary. Check out their on-line eBook store to get an idea of what categories your eBook may fit. You will be assigned a password and you can always edit the eBook content at any time. Mighty Words.com will also ask you where to send your quarterly royalties.

There is a very small charge for storage of your eBooks on Mighty Word's server.

Step Five: Now think about how you will spend your new revenue steam. Breathe deeply...now find more on-line eBook sellers that want you to publish on their websites!
