I like ebooks. I do. The royalty percentage is better, the turn around is quicker, and I think there’s more of a connection with both the pub and the reader.
However…
It’s nice to hold a print book. It’s great to see your name on the cover. It’s awesome when there’s some gorgeous artwork depicting some of your favorite characters and you get to hold it in your arms and just breathe it in.
I’ve been lucky enough to do that a few times. I got to do it again today.
My print copies of Dark Elves: Taken arrived today. It’s also available on Amazon (see the link).
Thanks once again to Anne Cain for fantabulous cover art!

An Eppie and a print book in the last few weeks…you’re on a roll!

Congrats Jet! I feel the same. I’m published– multi- in fact, but still the idea of holding my book in my hands….it’s something I’ve dreamed of since I was a child. Yes the cds are cool, but there’s something about the smell of paper….
Congrats and once again you know how I feel about those Dark Elves of yours!
