Publish and Sell Your E-Books

Course details

Indie authors are becoming overnight sensations in the New York Times and USA Today, on Amazon, and well, everywhere e-books are sold, proving there's no longer a stigma to self-publishing. In some genres self-published e-books even outsell those from traditional publishers, because readers are looking for new authors and stories that aren't written using a formula. And if you're in business, an e-book can be your new business card and play an important part in your content marketing plans. If you can use a word processor, have a book written-or have an idea for one-and want to see your name in print, you just might have what it takes to succeed in self-publishing. This six-week long course introduces you to everything you need to know to do a professional job of turning your manuscript into your dream-come-true, a book that will help you make money on the Internet, whether you want to self-publish a novel, a nonfiction book, or a picture book. You'll learn how to format your e-book and get it ready to sell through bookstores like Amazon and Apple.
