Kobo also runs the Kobo Writing Life program. Kobo Writing Life, piattaforma di autoedizione di Kobo, in collaborazione con Harmony, marchio leader della narrativa rosa, e in partnership con il blog Crazy For Romance, lanciano la seconda edizione di eLove Talent, il concorso dedicato al più bel romanzo d’amore digitale. Why did I not see that? Sherlock Holmes, I am not. An app is a program that lets you do anything from playing games to reading a book. It was staring me in the face all these years. I must shamefully confess that the most forehead slapping thing I learned from Mark is that kobo is an anagram for book. If you want to learn more about what Mark had to say, you can find a lot of the information in this excellent blog post.

I wish Amazon would share their knowledge of reader habits with us. Mark was an entertaining and informative speaker, delivering statistics about e-book sales that we could really use. SF is way down there, and horror isn’t even on the chart.

That doesn’t mean all books will get promoted, but your novel won’t get noticed if the cover is cheap. A good cover and a good synopsis might get flagged for promotion by kobo.The more you write, the better your writing will be, and the more product you’ll have out there earning income. Here’s some of the lessons I took from last night’s meet up:

Better yet, it’s still earning a trickle of income, which could go on for years. Cut to the chase My favourite thing about Kobo Writing Life is that authors are able to download their ePUBfile after conversion. Not a living wage, but more than any magazine was willing to pay. After ten years, while there were offers to publish it with little or no payment, the author finally self-published it. Mark used the example of a short story an author wanted to sell for $250. We’re talking a few grand a year, and they get to keep ownership of their work, which means if they can build a following, it could eventually translate into more income than they would ever make from a traditional publisher. Well add it to the Kobo catalogue within 72 hours and keep it there as. Despite indie-publishing potentially throwing book sales wide open, a small number of authors still make a big chunk of the change, just like in the traditional publishing world.īut there is good news: a fair number of authors are making some extra coin, even if it’s not quit-your-day-job income. Just create a Kobo Writing Life account, upload your manuscript, and set the price.
