Hello writers!

My name is Adrienne and my writing/publishing/marketing life has been kinda bonkers this year because I moved from FL to the Midwest, so "fish out of water" and all that.

As for the ebook situation, Evan makes a lot of great points and I don't know if my perspective will help much. I have an epub version of my novel out in the world, but I don't have a Kindle/ereader and I don't read ebooks myself. I just don't care for the format.

That said, if someone is curious about my book but might not want to pay to take a risk on me and my work (which I completely understand, especially in this economy), I send them to Hoopla, where they can download a digital copy of my book for free through their library. That way, I feel as though I am offering something for free and encouraging people to utilize their library resources at the same time. I know not everyone has access to Hoopla, but its better than nothing. And, if we're being honest, I'm cool sending people away from that rainforest company rather than to it.
