It's something I've always kicked around, not doing the eBook but the Rich Man, Poor Man thing.
In my view, the ebook world for both established and new authors is a terrific new and exciting format. It is a format that will bring forth many new writers to publishing.
Together, Amazon and I are giving readers what they want - inexpensive, professional ebooks.
It's easier to release an ebook than a print book.
I love giving people advice on what to do with their books, but I don't really know how a Kindle Single gets covered.
It [eBook] is like introducing the machine gun to a revolutionary war. It changes everything. If you can reach your fans directly without having to go through a middle man, the entire economics of the publishing business changes.
Unfortunately for me, most of the books I'd want to reprint were written for savvy publishers like Harlequin and Berkley who have held on to electronic rights. But I do have another option: Publish new e-books myself.
You have to remember that in addition to running a literary agency, I am also an ebook publisher.
I saw the short stories people were doing on Kindle and really liked the idea of seeing something I'd written on that screen.
