Author I am going back into the Book Publishing Business
Sam Sloan

2004-12-25, 5:45 pm

I have sold my first ebook and it only took two days;

I am in a celebrating mood now because I just sold my first ebook.

It is no big deal. The book only sells for $3.98, but every little bit
counts.

I have just relisted my ebook in two different places:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...item=4514409071
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...item=5945590330

http://stores.ebay.com/xxcomicsxx-store

I have also thought of a great new title for my book:

"The Case of the Beatriz Marinello"

"A trilling mystery flowing from a bottle of fine wine as our super
sleuth detective seeks to unearth the truth about the missing
$513,000, the slush fund, the undisclosed contract, the court order
and the secret deals."

Available now at a book store near you.
