An HTML editor may be necessary to convert a manuscript to an eBook format, and you can find a free HTML editor online. I recommend KompoZer for your HTML editing, and you can edit an entire book length manuscript with KompoZer for free.
The format may be decided by the eBook publisher, so your manuscript will automatically convert to the desired type font and spacing. Your only concern is to correct spelling errors and to see that italics are in place.
Once your eBook is converted to HTML, upload it to the digital text platform. Here it will be kept as a file for you to issue as an eBook with royalties paid for your eBook. You can create an account for your digital publishing.
Royalties for your eBook are up to 70 percent on Amazon, so it is a lucrative approach to electronic publishing. This is an exciting new marketplace, and will give the reader the enjoyment of reading on an electronic reader.
You will want to sell your eBook with one of the web sites that specialize in digital books. The prices for eBooks are usually a little cheaper than paperbacks, so this gives an incentive to the eBook reader.
You can make money from online sales and even advertise your book. You may want to include it in eBook directories, or if you have a blog, you can submit your new URL to Google or Yahoo. Let your friends know you are a digital author, and sit back to enjoy the profits.
