How do we do eBook Distribution? Glad you asked...

What formats?
Every month we provide new stories, but did you know we compile these into a free eBook for eReaders? There's EPUB, MOBI and PDF and more.

In stores, too?
We push these to all eReader storefronts. To do this, we use four channels: Smashwords, Amazon KDP, Google Play and Lulu. This covers every eReader, and then some.

How fast?
Note that it can take weeks for our monthly issue to appear in those catalogs, so if you are too impatient waiting for your issue, you do have the option of using the direct links to your favorite format, which you can "sideload" on your own. Once our monthly tasks in the four channels above are completed, then Nook is probably the first thing to show up. If they are not first in the eBook market, at least they can be first to market.
Can you keep it up?
It might not seem worth all the work to distribute monthly, so we make sure that every issue is at least 15,000 words. We'll need your submissions for that, right? Hint, hint?

More information? For exhaustive details on these channels please read, About Distribution, at the main site. Here are sample links for March, 2014.

As a writer, why should I care?
Because, when you change from publishing in journals to publishing yourself, you'll learn a lot about where your work is being read. I love graphs. Don't you? Here is one about worldwide markets for all eBook sales: Find more statistics at Statista

Anecdote, Reminiscence and other Side Effects

Selecting first-person narrative is high-risk. Will you, the writer, create a first-person story that is anecdotal, reminiscent, exposition-heavy, didactic or …? Odds are: yes. Check out this example:

• Narrative gives off this tone: “This is important because I remember it.” 
• Readers think: “Stop talking already. I’m trying to hear the story.” 

Is this your story? If so, try shifting the narrative power to stealth mode. It more easily transports the reader without speed bumps, without authorial intrusion. Does “first-person” always fail? Of course not. Just be objective about how your choice in relating your story either complicates or enhances the reading.
