I think you'll&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;find it very interesting if you've ever thought about writing, creating, publishing and selling your own ebook.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt; Regards,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span lang="0"    style="font-family:Liffey Script SF;font-size:180%;color:#000000;"&gt;Walter Bowman&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;====================================================&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Let's Get One Thing Straight About Being A Published Author&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(c) by Jim Edwards and David Garfinkel&lt;br /&gt;- All Rights reserved&lt;br /&gt;-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just for fun, evaluate the following statement:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Most people want to write a book and get it published, but&lt;br /&gt;that's simply impossible 99% of the time."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is the above statement true?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Not exactly. What's true is that most people THINK they&lt;br /&gt;can't write a book and get it published.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And while that's a widely-held belief, just the opposite is&lt;br /&gt;true.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, it's easier to write and get published today than&lt;br /&gt;ever before - especially thanks to the ebook "revolution."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The field of ebooks is literally wide open for all who are&lt;br /&gt;interested - including, perhaps, you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What does it take to write and publish your own ebook?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Three things:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) A TOPIC you are interested in that others would also like&lt;br /&gt;to know more about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) The DESIRE to get the ebook written (note - you can write&lt;br /&gt;it yourself, but you don't have to. There are other proven&lt;br /&gt;and simple ways to get your ebook written and published for&lt;br /&gt;you.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) A simple, one-page, "sales letter" WEB SITE to sell the&lt;br /&gt;ebook.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Does it take a lot of money or any special aptitudes?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Oddly enough, not really. You have to be willing to take&lt;br /&gt;action, certainly, and learn as you go, but there are no&lt;br /&gt;special educational, financial or talent requirements to&lt;br /&gt;become a successful ebook author.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The truth is, it costs very little to get started. You can&lt;br /&gt;get a domain registered and online for as little as $9 to&lt;br /&gt;start and $6 a month for website hosting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, there are actually six ways you can create an ebook&lt;br /&gt;without ever writing a word of it - so you don't need to be&lt;br /&gt;a skilled writer. We'll tell you about one of them,&lt;br /&gt;in-depth, right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Think of a topic you know something about that you'd like to&lt;br /&gt;write an ebook on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Once you have that topic in mind, then all you need to do is&lt;br /&gt;write a list of questions other people would pay to get the&lt;br /&gt;answers to... give that list to a friend... have the friend&lt;br /&gt;call you on the phone and ask you those questions... record&lt;br /&gt;the call... have the recording transcribed... and edit the&lt;br /&gt;transcription!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Presto - you've just created a "meaty" ebook fast!&lt;br /&gt;(Yes, it *really* is that simple!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;By the way, if you don't want to transcribe or edit the&lt;br /&gt;ebook yourself, you can get both of those things done for&lt;br /&gt;you for surprisingly little money... as little as a few&lt;br /&gt;hundred dollars, total, in many cases.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That's how we wrote one of our most recent ebooks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As authors ourselves, we came up with a list of questions,&lt;br /&gt;got on the phone, recorded the answers, and had the entire&lt;br /&gt;4 1/2 hour conversation transcribed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Using this phone call - transcription - edit route we&lt;br /&gt;created an ebook in about a week. It cost us a total of&lt;br /&gt;$163 to produce it. (We hired out the transcription, and&lt;br /&gt;did the editing ourselves.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far we've spent *zero* money on advertising and, as we&lt;br /&gt;write this article today, we've sold over $91,924 worth of&lt;br /&gt;that ebook in less than 15 months!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We're not unique in that way. We know many others who have&lt;br /&gt;successfully published ebooks - including another small&lt;br /&gt;publisher who has uses this exact same method to create&lt;br /&gt;dozens of ebooks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you can clearly understand a specific problem, want, need&lt;br /&gt;or desire of a large enough target audience and then create&lt;br /&gt;a publication that helps them get what they want, you stand&lt;br /&gt;to make a lot of money and help a great number of people at&lt;br /&gt;the same time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If there ever was a "golden age" of publishing, NOW is the&lt;br /&gt;time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The truth of the matter is, today anyone can become a&lt;br /&gt;published author with an ebook in less than a couple of&lt;br /&gt;weeks. Between us, we have 15 ebooks online and we're&lt;br /&gt;making money every day, even as you read this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can do the same. Opportunity awaits you right now.&lt;br /&gt;It's never been easier to seize the day and go for your&lt;br /&gt;dream - become a published author!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jim Edwards and David Garfinkel are co-authors of "eBook&lt;br /&gt;Secrets Exposed," the authoritative resource for making a&lt;br /&gt;lot of money quickly writing and publishing your own ebook.&lt;br /&gt;Guerrilla Marketing series author Jay Conrad Levinson says,&lt;br /&gt;"If ever there was a 'must-read' for this century, it's this&lt;br /&gt;book."
