THE INNER SWINE E-BOOK PAGE
Friends, I got to thinking the other
day about my recent publishing exploits, and it occurred to me that
sitting around waiting for someone to publish my works-o-genius is
a dumb thing to do in this day and age. Sure, getting a nicely
printed and bound version of your book in bookstores is great, and
for that I will keep trying to get others to foot the bills. But
for my Digirati fans, I've decided to go ahead and self-publish a
bunch of worthy manuscripts as E-books in various formats. Feel
free to download them, read them, print them out, give them to
friends, and show them to all of your literary agent friends. If
you'd like to send me some money as a donation, that is not
discouraged, although it ain't necessary. Enjoy!
The Adobe PDF files can be read in
either Acrobat Reader
or Adobe Ebook Reader., both free
downloads. The Ebook reader gives it more of a book feeling, I
guess. The RTF and TXT files should be readable in any word
processor. The TXT files can also be read in your browser, bubba.
For the Text files (TXT) I'd recommend the nifty BookReader from Rudenko software. Freeware, about 1meg download,
turns any Text file into a nifty Ebook.
