A phenomenal number of Kindles were given as gifts this Christmas, not to mention the large number of Android tablets that are Kindle (and Kobo) capable. It seems then crazy to ignore this format. Two of my computer guide books are (thanks to my publisher PeachPit) already available in this format, so I decided late in 2011 to make my crime novel 'Ordinary Monsters' available to Kindle users.
The actual creation of a Kindle edition was fairly simple. Nothing a self proclaimed geek like me can't handle, but the cover proved tricky and I plumped instead for a photograph from a paid web site. It cost me 30 quid and that cost covered the right to use it on an e-book cover. I like the new cover a lot. It says more about the themes in the book, which is never a bad thing.
So if you have a kindle, or an android tablet, or a iPad for that matter, then take a look at the preview. If you like it, the whole book can now be bought for just 77pence!
