5 Reasons Ebooks Are Great

March 22nd, 2008 by Amanda Young

1)Ebooks reduce paper waste filling our dumping sites, as well as transportation and pollution associated with shipping paper books

2)E-Books take up space on a computer or reading device and not your home

3)E-Books can be purchased any time day or night and are downloadable instantly

4)E-Books can be the length the story demands so authors aren’t filling a story with padding to make the tale fit a specific length

5) E-Books aren’t limited in their subject matter and aren’t censored, allowing adults to read what they want.

    Great reasons, Amanda! And, I’d add:

    6) Any voice can be heard - you don’t have to pen something corporate publishing thinks will sell 50k ++ copies.

    7) Allows some of those 1.3 million rejected manuscripts each year to be published. Let’s face it - anyone who completes a book is worthy of a try.

    8) Allows delivery at a price point that entices readers to try new authors or genres.

    9) Delivers literature at a price point that allows everyone to read voraciously without taking out a second mortgage.

    10) Gives hope to the 81% of Americans who believe they have a book in them they should write.

    At least, that’s what we believe at Frugal Fiction where we offer Independent Authors & E-ffordable reading.

    It’s time for independent authors to band together and create their own publishing empire - one where the public, not corporate publishing, decides what they want to read. E-books can accomplish that outcome.

    Wishing you much success!!
