Another ebook done
14 years ago
General
I've just finished converting and uploading "More Terrible Than Chains". You can get it in various formats at Smashwords - http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/127350 - for $13.99
You can get the Kindle format there too, but if you prefer to buy through Amazon.com, it will soon be available there also. Same price. It's a third less than the paperback price. In fact that's what I'll be aiming to price all the ebooks - one third off the dead tree versions.
I notice the reviews on Amazon.com have equally praised the book and lambasted it. Sometimes I wonder what people see in my writing when it gets such mixed responses.
Don't forget that you can get "Life's Dream" at Smashwords - http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/125511
I would get these conversions done more quickly if I didn't have to be so finicky. I also need to replace the horizontal rules that I use in the documents with a row of plain text asterisks, but I don't know how to do a search & replace on horizontal rules, so I have to do them all manually, which is slow and prone to error. Anybody got a clue how to do it quicker?

this should make publishing your books much easier ^_^

If you're talking about things like lines autogenerated from ---, I don't think it's possible, if you're editing from an HTML doc, however, you could open it in a HTML editor then find and replace all <hr>

HTML is easy. It's the --- lines that are hard.

From my understanding of it, the lines are actually table borders of some sort.

Although it will be done, I'm afraid you're going to have to wait a while as that is probably going to be done last. I will be converting them mostly in the order that I published the books. I might change my mind though.
