Autographed EBooks and More…
I recently began having all of my ebooks reformatted by a professional instead of doing it myself (which, I’m told produced many, many gremlins in the files) and the first four Lawson novels are now completed. They’re back on-sale at Amazon US, Amazon UK, Barnes & Noble, Smashwords, and shortly they’ll also be available on iBooks, and most exciting – you can also get them autographed by me.
Yep, you read that right. Autographed, baby.
It’s always cool getting a book signed and for a while, one of the complaints about ebooks is that you can’t do that. No longer. Autography is a fantastic company that has pioneered an app on the iPad along with a storefront that lets me autograph a book for you. Once I’ve autographed it, you receive an email telling you that you can go and purchase the ebook and then you go to the site, pay and then download the ebook. It’s that simple.
So, how’s the quality? Outstanding. Seriously. I’ve been playing with it for a few days and it’s astounding how much it looks like an actual pen and ink signature. Plus, I can personalize a message to you, add a photo, and do a bunch of other stuff. The page then gets inserted directly into the ebook file for you to see when you read it. How cool is that?
Want to get the Lawson books autographed? All you’ve got to do is send me an email: jonfmerz AT verizon DOT net along with any message choices and then I’ll take it from there. You’ll get an email once the ebook is ready to paid for and downloaded.
A lot of other things are happening. My latest newsletter went out yesterday with details of my new 3-book deal with Baen Books for a brand new Fantasy series. I’ve launched Supernatural Ink. a new author collective promising excellence in digital entertainment along with three other authors – and we’re giving away a FREE ebook! (Go to the site for details) The Lawson books are going to be translated into Spanish. The ebooks will be up on Overdrive (which services a gazillion libraries) very soon. And a host of other good things are afoot. If you didn’t see the newsletter, you can access it here – but you really ought to subscribe.
Okay, let’s get some autographs done! Have a great weekend everyone!
