First, you need to decide what format you want your Ebook in. The two most popular formats are
HTML and PDF. So far, PDF has been the choice of most Ebook authors, but HTML is gaining ground.

If you know your topic you can kick out a 50-page Ebook in no time. But should you write it yourself?
It depends. How much time and money do you have?

There are advantages to having your Ebook ghostwritten.
You can be doing something else while the product is being produced
You can play the role of editor and director while other people do the work
Or you can take a vacation

If you do decide to hire a ghostwriter to handle your Ebook project for you, you'll want to keep a few
things in mind:
1.Give the writer a thorough outline - You have to operate on the assumption that the writer will
include only what you put into the outline. I recommend that you, as the expert, write the outline for
your Ebook project. Make sure everything you want included in your Ebook is in the outline. Do it this
way:
Start with chapters. Those are your broad topics.
Next, add sub-chapters or section headings. Make sure your outline is written so that each point is a
heading and all the writer has to do is keep those headings and write each section according to you
guidelines.
Include graphic notes. What graphics do you want and where do you want them? Be specific.
Chapter summaries. Do you want them? Be sure you state how you want them handled - bullet points,
paragraphs, sidebars, etc. All of it has to be in writing and outlined if you want it in the book.
Don't experiment - Stick to the tried and true methods, especially on your first Ebook. I made the
mistake of switching from MS Word to Open Office, an open source word processor. It was a great
program and made PDF conversion very easy (easier than MS Word); however, formatting graphics
proved to be a nightmare and I ended up spending twice as long as I needed to on the project.
For PDF e-books, use MS Word and CutePDF - This is the best way. Do all of your writing in MS Word
and convert to PDF using CutePDFs professional edition. It costs less than $50 and is more than

adequate for the job. You have to format all of your links in CutePDF rather than MS Word but if you do
it in Word first then you'll see the blue underlines where the hyperlinks are supposed to go and you can
use that as your guide once you open up CutePDF.
Be clear with your ghostwriter about whom will do the conversion - You can do it yourself or let the
writer do it, but be sure you have an understanding before you start the project. Some writers charge
extra for this service and some don't offer it at all. Make sure you know what you're getting.
Don't pay too much - The Internet has brought down the fees for writing services. Ebooks, especially,
do not have to cost an arm and a leg to produce. However, if you want excellent writing, you'll have to
pay for it. Just don't overpay and make sure you get samples of your writer's work before you hire him.
Finally, don't bite off more than you can chew - Be realistic about your expectations. Does your topic
need a 500-page Ebook?

4 Useful Tips For Buying Discount Quilting Books on eBay
By Sue Quillen

Quilters can find a huge selection of discount quilting books on eBay. In addition to the rock-bottom
prices, there are many other advantages for buying quilting books on eBay.

(1.) New quilting book titles can often be purchased before they are released to the brick and mortar
stores.

(2.) Quilters who enjoy collecting books written by a particular author can often find a seller listing their
entire collection on eBay.

(3.) Rare, out-of-print, and otherwise hard-to-find quilting books can often be found for sale on eBay.

Before purchasing any quilting books on eBay, however, there are several important things to be
aware of. Here are five useful tips for buying discount quilting books on eBay:

Pay Attention to the Advertised Condition

Be sure to carefully read the description of the quilting book offered for sale. If a book is advertised as
being 'second hand,' or 'used condition' be aware that the book may contain flaws such as page
discoloration, and scratches, bends, and folds on the cover.

Be Aware of The Book's History

Many quilting books that are offered for sale on eBay are often acquired from estate sales. In most
cases, that means that the buyer does not know the history of the book being offered for sale. The
book may have been in storage for months and could have a musty odor or smell faintly of mothballs.

This is particularly important to be aware of if you have allergies or are sensitive to odors. If the book
actually belonged to the seller, they will often disclose if the book came from a smoke-free or pet-free
home in the description. Some sellers, however, do not provide this information. When in doubt, it
never hurts to ask!

Watch Those Shipping Costs

Most sellers will ship quilting books via US Postal Service Media Mail or Parcel Post. The shipping
cost, therefore, is generally not that great, unless the book being sold is oversized or a large lot of
books is being purchased. However, it is important to note that not every seller will charge the 'actual'
shipping costs.

Those special 'handling' costs that are often tacked on can include such items as tape, packing
envelopes, time spent packing the books, etc.

Many sellers will offer to consolidate orders, for multiple wins. This can save greatly on shipping costs.
Some sellers even offer the option

of free pickup for local buyers.

Read The Return Policy

Always read the return policy. Be aware that a seller will not offer a refund just because a buyer
changed their mind about purchasing the quilting book. Some will refund the purchase cost if the item
is not as described. Normally, however, the buyer is responsible for the cost of the return shipping. If
the item is damaged during transit, a seller will not offer a refund unless insurance was purchased.

If you follow these four buying tips, buying discount quilting books on eBay will be a rewarding,
profitable, and pleasant experience
