About the eBooks
Kendra and I seem to be learning about the publication of ebooks one technical point at a time. We are now focused just on completing our series: Seasons of Our Lives. There will be four volumes, beginning with Summer. We anticipate releasing all of them at the same time — available in the Kindle format since it works not only on the Kindle but also all of the readers — even computers — using the free Kindle Reader software. We’re finally making good progress although the discovery of two days ago that early Kindle’s won’t display italics is a bit dismaying. Still progress is progress.
We’ll be sure to let you know when we release the four volumes so that you can see the winning contest entries.
