  1. Great post. For your Canadian readers, ISBNs come from //www.collectionscanada.gc.ca/ciss-ssci/index-e.html
    you have to apply for an account, it’s not hard. The ISBNs are free.

    Also, I have all my books in print with Createspace and I used their template for the cover. It seems to work just fine, and they generate the barcode.
    If you are interested in using their extended services you must use their ISBN.

  2. This is by far the best outline of how to do this. You have saved me a ton of work. I was trying to help a friend by explaining the whole CreateSpace/eReader thing. Thank you!

    I wish I had something insightful to add.

  3. Great outline!

    There are so many great resources out there for authors now – especially if you’re interested in only e-books but would prefer your book is distributed to all retailers (instead of just Amazon/Kindle). I encourage you to try a free DIY e-publisher called Booktango for your next venture!
