Today, I uploaded Mr. Planemaker's Flying Machine as an e-book on mobipocket.com. You can see the book here and you can download a preview of the book. I think you will be impressed by the quality:

Great news. I hope you have lots of sales. It looks much better than Lulu and I don't suppose there is any reason why you can't use both sites to sell the same e-book. Was it easy to do? Lulu was a pain in the **** as you had to send them the file to convert.

Lulu is a breeze compared with mobipocket Jenny! You have to download the software, mobipocket creator, to create the e-book. After converting a file to html, you have to edit the code to layout the book. It took me ages even though I'd learned a lot from the Kindle experience. It was worth the effort though. I think it looks superb. Very Happy
