- pgbovine 17y agoThe eBook it self probably took around 3-4 hours to write holy cow, i don't think i could type 60 pages of coherent markup in 3-4 hours.

- fmeyer 17y agoIgnoring the spammer's attempt to spam and trying to bring some ideas in this conversation, If you're really interested to write anything useful, you should get in contact with Geoffrey Grosenbach from peepcode(http://peepcode.com/questions#are-you-hiring http://peepcode.com/questions#are-you-hiring). They often publish third part ebooks, if your book is accepted and sold about 1k copies they claim that you'll receive US$3,000. peepcode's eBooks and Screencasts are memorable for it's simplicity and pragmatism.
- iamdave 17y agoI went and read their Author Guide. This line stuck out: >Our goal is to sell at least 1,000 copies of your book (a reasonable target after a few months of sales). If this happens, you'll receive about US$3,000. The first $2,000 of this will come when your book is published, and the remainder will be paid quarterly in January, April, July, and October. There is something about that which really bugs me, mainly it's the word 'if'.
- dpapathanasiou 17y agoMy startup (FiFoBooks.com) offers another possibility: authors retain all the rights to their work, have full editorial control, set their own prices, and also keep the majority of the sales proceeds, with no "ifs".
- volomike 17y agoMy hotshot affiliate marketing client in Dallas made $150,000 on his eBook over a period of 2 years' sales. I don't usually approach my affiliate marketing clients and press them for details -- that's kind of why they like me I'm thinking. But I sure am curious what the topic was about. My guess was that it was about affiliate marketing.
- terhechte 17y agoDoes anyone know if there is some sort of contribution-friendly eBook store with high amounts of visitors? In a way like the App Store, just for eBooks (of course with less visitors)?
