As always I am overwhelmed by the amount of helpful information out there if you only know where to find it.
I found the "Book Sales Demystified" blog very informative. It really shows the difference between the marketing of epublishing and hard copy publishing. The process and promotional aspects are quite different.
I haven't checked out all the links yet and there are lots of past blogs on Nathan's site alone to make me a more informed newbie!
Thanks for sharing the links Marilynn
