I have yet to purchase a Kindle but I do have a Kindle Ap on my iTouch. What I have found is that I like to download and carry material with me which is applicable to any project I may be working on at the moment, but I still buy books. In particular, I’m a big consumer of Coffee Table type books on subjects related to travel and photography.

We live in interesting times. My next project will be one which is quite visual. -Rosemary

Thanks, Becca, I read through your “little experiment.” Your discoveries are very interesting. And I agree with Matilda, anyone thinking of converting their book to Kindle should read your post. Good job.

Becca: Thanks for your comment and your afternoon of experiments. I urge all our readers to check out your website and see how easy it is to create a Kindle book. It’s great for you to share the limitations since it will make the task easier for an author if she knows early in the process what she will and won’t be able to do.
