I published my anthology of computer stories on Amazon Kindle this morning. It is 173 pages long and there are 16 short stories. It was remarkably easy.

I formatted the stories using word and a 6×9 template that I downloaded from a website. I went to a free font site and got some snazzy science fiction fonts for the headings and the title.

It took me 4 days to re-read and edit all the stories and then format them in MS word.

I have Adobe Pro that can create PDF files, so I used that to create the PDF.

I then went to DTP.Amazon.com and filled out the forms and uploaded my book.

The book is under review, now.

I had an urge to sell it cheap – there is a 99¢ option, but, counter to what you may think, pricing a book high on Amazon does not hurt your sales, and may enhance them. I chose $8.97 because it is less than the max $9.99, and it sounds a little like the book is on sale.

I will put a link all over my pages when it through the review process.

I am working on Amazon’s CreateSpace to have hard copies of the book, but I am stuck on the cover. I need an afternoon so I can put together my art ideas. Then, watch out, all of my friends will be getting my book for Christmas instead of a bottle of wine.

I am now starting to collect all of my weird tales in a word document to see if I have enough to do another anthology. Then I’ll put all of my Space Opera together.
