Kindle Store

We are talking about the completely seamless integration between digital text and digital audio within a single corporate walled garden.

So if I go to the specific Matchmaker portal online, it actively scans my entire existing library of Kindle eBooks.

It just reads my digital shelf.

Yep, it indexes everything you've bought.

Okay.

Right now the books are available exclusively on Amazon as Kindle eBooks.

Just go to Amazon and search for Steve Stockton or strange things in the woods beyond there.

The first book, strange things in the woods.

All of the features from Kindle Previewer 3 still there too including device previews and quality checks now i haven't had a chance to take it for a test drive yet so i'm not going to make this sound bigger than it is but i'm glad to see amazon continuing to update a free tool authors can use before hitting publish In other relevant news, KDP announced in the Community Forum on September 21st that authors can now create up to two new titles per book format each week.

The limit applies separately to Kindle eBooks, paperbacks, and hardcovers, and it resets every Sunday at midnight.

Now, what caught my attention is how much that number has changed in a pretty short time period.

Back in August, when I published, I spent two hours in the KDP community, it got ugly.

Yeah.

Um, and just like the Amazon Store or the Kindle Store, um, the Kobo library itself w- has sales and things.

You know, uh, I don't buy very many books, but every once in a while I will, and I...

There was one recently where it was like, you know, the 199 or 299 for a classic, and I jumped on that.

Well, the irony is, isn't it, that, I mean, we are now in an age, especially with devices like the Kindle, but, you know, to some extent smartphones, where there's never been greater accessibility to reading materials, and quite cheaply.

I mean, the price of books on Kindle Store probably not gone up in the last 20 years, but...

It seems to have just lost people's attention for whatever reason.

But also, societally, we've seen a wholesale rundown of the library service in this country.

Or...

So I went with Samuel Butler prose, 99 cents on the Kindle Store.

Nice.

Okay? So there I go.

But you can return.

I was illegally downloading books prior to, but I haven't checked in a while, but Anna's archive was, like, taken down and wasn't working, and it's just honestly way more convenient to just buy it from the [laughs] the Kindle Store.

So anyways, that was really nice.

Um, what else have I been loving? I've been loving just having a nice drink when I'm out with the girls.
