Author Craft / Re: An eBook publishing site

Um, guilty.

I've bought books from Cobblestone Press, and on more than one occasion.  Can't say I'm a good critiquer for whether or not a book is well-written, but IMO some ebooks are good, some are bad, some ebook publishers do a good job editing, and some (defunct) ebook publishers don't.  Yes, this applies to stories I have read from Cobblestone Press.  Yes, I watch for some of their authors' next books.  Yes, I buy ebooks from more than one e-publisher.

If an author catches my attention, I will buy their tale, fiction or non-fiction, whether it be e-published or paper-published.  I will especially buy their ebook if it be late at night and no bookstore be open.  I will often buy an ebook in addition to, sometimes in place of, a paper edition.  Since our house is small, paper editions often go to the local Goodwill equivalent (whine), and the ebook edition remains with me.

Don't know what the pay structures and rates are for ebook publishing versus paper publishing, but might some of the anti-ebook sniffing be simply established prejudice?  Please educate me.

Sincerely,
A Recovering Packrat, and a Happy Bookaholic
