Phyllis – try getting help over at Upwork or Fiverr – just publish the “job” there (publish a book with ISBN on Amazon Kindle) and see what happens.

The other alternative is to find a good guide online and walk through the motion with it.

I have had my four book secret series for sale for years. I have only made 12 dollars sales, it has been at least ten years or more. I have them on Amazon.com etc. I self published because another pod published ripped me off. I use lightning Source for the distribution etc. The books are beautifully done and sent to be quickly when I order them. However, I have made no sales!!!! But they make sure I pay them anything that I might owe. I have my own ISBN’s . I have bene thinking about going kindle as well. I have no idea how to do all this. I pray someone can help me.

In reply to Jeremy.

Some books come with chapter indications on the lower progress bar on the Kindle, making it easy to know when you are going to reach the end of the chapter.

I find it exhilirating not really knowing what comes next – almost like a movie 🙂

Interesting post. I was most interested in this section: “Should I read until the end of the chapter?” after doing a google search on knowing where I am in a Kindle book. So I agree about the way Kindle books keep one’s place, but I really do like finishing the “thought” of the author by reading to the end of a section or chapter. Do you (or other readers) have any tips for better navigating where one is in a Kindle book? So, for example, to stick with your comparison, in a paperback I can easily flip to the end of the chapter or a few more pages to see a more natural stopping place, but using my Kindle (with keyboard) I have to click,click,click for who knows how long. Even getting back to the TOC is way less user friendly than a Nook book.

Any suggestions, anyone? If you’re like me and like knowing where you are in the book, what solutions have you come up with?

The issue with respect to which book to take on a trip is definitely solved: I can carry my entire library with me (or download it on demand). I have lots of paper books still, but I now buy Kindle books when possible. I still encounter books I can only get in paper form (often math books or older technical books), but I’m pleased to see that most publishers make books available for the Kindle.

One of the things I really love about Kindle is the fact I don’t have to use the Kindle 🙂 I own one, but I use it, my PC, and my tablet to read books. Amazon records my last position, bookmarks, etc. so I can move from device to device with ease. Device mobility is really important to me, and Kindle (physical device) or software (PC / tablet) are a perfect solution.
