            I published the tarot meanings at Bukisa. And now I get many readers who are finding them very helpful. I am thinking that it would be great to change them into Ebook form with an addition of some more beneficial information on spreads. But for that I need a publisher. So can anyone recommend me a good ePublisher?

                    Are you after a traditional publisher? Or are you considering self-publishing?
I am currently cleaning up and editing a set of twelve articles that I did for the Hearthstone Community Church newsletter (open full moon rituals). I am going to be putting them together as a "test project" to see how well Smashwords works for self-publishing ebooks.

                            I am totally new to this kind of publishing method. Are you independently taking care of editing your ebook?

                            Yeah, I am currently editing my own stuff. The good thing about this project is that everything is at least six months old, so it is like reading someone else's work. While I would love to pay someone to do the formating and editing for me, I just don't have the budget for it at the moment. Hopefully for the next project.

                    In addition to the ideas that have already been mentioned, I believe Barnes & Noble also allows you to publish e-books that can be downloaded form their site and read on their nook e-readers. That might be another option for you to consider, although I am not sure how much 'commission' they would take out.

                            I have been going through their site. I am just trying to find out the advantages and disadvantages of going for them. The commission does play an important part. I am trying to be careful about it.

                    You can also publish ebooks directly to amazon - they have full instructions and information there. They tell you what format to give them the book in, I think you can download a conversion program - and you list the books with them and they sell it from their site.

                            Oh, I did not know that. Thank you for the information. I have been a used textbook seller at Amazon. I always found the site secure. But do they charge for publishing? I am going to check this out.
