Our Dog Lucca: A funny, short, picture scrapbook

Not that I sold a million copies, but it was significant to me. Of course, the Big Six are still there and will continue to be there, but small guys who have a good story to tell — yet may get shunned from the large publishers because they already have a stable of successful authors — can make it. However, there is a certain level of disappointment as there is a real lack of support for blog publishers from Amazon.

I have seen membership for most of my blogs decrease for the last two months, when they had done nothing but increase each month for the previous 18 months. Thanks for paying me a visit — and happy holidays! My girlfriend actually cried when I showed her her birthday present this year. So she did — and there he was! She saw a picture of her own dog staring back at her — as the cover of a Kindle ebook. She sat there, stunned.

Lucca is a cuddly Cocker Spaniel dog who belongs to a woman named TC. And when she opened it, every page seemed to dazzle her. Whenever Lucca did something cute, there was that camera in my pocket on the Christmas-gift smartphone. And that spring when our dog became friends with the cat downstairs, I was able to get some great pictures. You can see those pictures in color if you download the book to your smartphone or to your Kindle Fire tablet.

Download the ebook to your Kindle and see the dog ebook that made TC smile. There was some real excitement right around Christmas time. And on December 21st, until 8 p. And they offered one more helpful suggestion for how to spend money at Amazon. I see some of the best games for the Kindle have gone on sale now for the ultra-cheap price of just 99 cents! For example, last week Electronic Arts released a slick new Kindle version of the classic game, Battleship. In fact, every game from Electronic Arts is now specially priced at just 99 cents.

Point your browser to tinyurl. But it was EA Games that took four of the top ten slots on the list, including the 1 spot for Yahtzee and the 2 spot for Scrabble. Even with no print sales whatsoever, two ebooks still crashed into the top 10 — The Mill River Recluse and The Abbey in the 4 and 9 slots, respectively. But it seems to be the exception, since for most books, their print sales exerted a much smaller influence on their final year-end rank. Just look at a new chart on the internet at tinyurl. But it shot up five more ranks — to the 2 slot — if you included its ebook sales.

It looks like Amazon sold so many ebooks in that there were lots of high-selling books, even beyond the first The same is also true for George R. When you included their ebook sales — 4 and 8, respectively — both books rose into the top 10! Of course, the opposite is also true.

December – Me and My Kindle

Inheritance only reached the 37 spot on the ebook best-seller list for the year. But in print, it was the 3 best-seller, which gave it the 10 spot on the best-seller list for both formats.

The book helped to popularize these traditions, though ironically, the story was immediately pirated after Dickens published it, and he realized almost no profits from the story himself! But he also fathered many of our Christmas traditions. At the age of 29, when he was starting his career in , Irving added five nostalgic Christmas stories to a collection of writing, and for one dream sequence, imagined what would happen if St. Nicholas flew over the forests in a flying sleigh.

And the stories had an even greater impact. In October they dug up some actual statistics on the new growth in self-published titles. And that would bring the total of self-published ebooks to at least , by the end of December…. But many authors publish more than one book, so the number of self-publishing authors is probably much smaller, maybe even less than , My favorite part of the article was these stories about different authors, and what happened when they explored a new kind of publishing.

Nyree Belleville had been going through a traditional print publisher for her romance novels for seven years, according to the Journal.

Just as an example, imagine the first ebook published by a teenaged reporter at a high school newspaper. But would that really matter? Hundreds of other students in their own high school might download the ebook — and maybe also even their relatives including curious grandparents and aunts and uncles.

And it turns out the two lists are entirely different! But just look at the the top ten ebooks of the year. And that includes the 1 and 2 best-selling ebooks of the year…. Diary of a Wimpy Kid: But the other titles are available in both ebook and print editions — and they seem to prove that Kindle owners just buy different books than the people shopping for print editions!

Look again at the the top ten ebooks of the year. Only three of them also appeared on the list of the ten-bestselling printed books. In the Garden of Beasts: A Sookie Stackhouse Novel. A Stephanie Plum Novel. Inheritance Inheritance Cycle, Book 4. And nothing changes if you expand your focus to the top best-selling books of the entire year. And the same is true in reverse. Second Son Kindle Single. Mile 81 Kindle Single by Stephen King.

No Time Left Kindle Single. Three Cups of Deceit: And at least five of the best-selling ebooks are by authors who earned their popularity in ebooks, like Amanda Hocking and John Locke.
