Not long ago, I was reformatting some old books that I had written, several of which I had posted online as rudimentary eBooks, albeit in an older format to place on to the Amazon website. Why, you ask, simple, so that my loyal readers can read them on their Kindle eReaders. In doing this I had noted how many articles I had written which were actually old book reviews. I immediately realized that the folks that have Kindle eReaders would be interested in reading book reviews so they can choose which future books to load onto that little personal tech device. Okay so, let's talk about this for second.
Yes, on the Amazon website, as well as on the Barnes & Noble website there are folks who give their reviews of the books they have purchased on the site, and that's all well and good. The only problem with that is you have to go to the actual book to find the book reviews. But what if you don't know which books to buy? What if you know you like books of a certain category, does that mean you have to go to each individual book to read what people wrote? What if all of that was in a single eBook?
Well, if you are like me and you have read all the books on your industry, and you know this information backwards and forwards, wouldn't you be the best source for someone who is also looking for books to load onto their eReader in that industry sector? Certainly you would. Further, why wouldn't you share that information and take your old reviews, and repurpose them into an eBook that is nothing more than a collection of reviews. Well, since I've done this, and now that I know how to do it, let me explain how you might go about doing the same thing.
First, you will need to use some sort of an eBook format, and if you don't have one you can e-mail me, and I will send you one (as long as you are not an unethical online scam artist), or you can go to the Microsoft website if you have Microsoft Word, and go to their "templates section" and click on the book category. You will see several there which you can download, along with the table of contents. Simply take the titles of all of your book review articles and make each one of them a subheading, and then post those articles into the eBook. Once completed, load that eBook onto the Kindle or Amazon website, you might also try the Barnes & Noble website and do the same thing.
This will help all of us book lovers, and all of us who have eReaders utilize this information and know which books to buy. Indeed I hope you will please consider all this and think on it.
