Request to help me in beta-testing formats

Hi pen peers,

(Or should I say keyboard peers?)

Anyway, I don't know if this is the place for my request; but as it is an exchange I'll post it here and if it's not appropriate just let me know.


I'd like to ask any member here who is interested in inspirational fantasy and women's storytelling and who has a tablet, kindle, ereader or other book reading device if you'd like to do an exchange. (I especially call on women writers/readers, as this book is directed to the women's market.)

I need you to download and read the story and give me this feedback:

  • Does it download easily and well?
  • Does the format keep?
  • Is everything readable?
  • Also, if you like the story, I would appreciate a short review or endorsement.


In exchange, you will enjoy this inspirational fantasy story-- "Joy and the Goldfish" --in which I've embedded  shamanic secrets for creating your life as you create a painting.

If you are interested once the beta testing is over, I'll also share with you the scoop on how to create your tablet formats easily from word documents without any expensive software or complicated process. (This is provided I confirm that this system works)!

I have created the story in MOBI and EPUB formats.

EPUB format works for these devices:

  • Sony readers, Nook, Nook Color and Nook Tablet, iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch, Android and most other readers.


MOBI format works for these devices:

  • Kindle and Kindle Fire


I need to test the formats during the next weeks, so this is a temporary offer that lasts until August 15, 2013.

To download the story, simply go to this URL and use the password "betatest" (without the quotation marks):

http://catchthedreamexpress.com/beta-test/

All instructions are in the webpage and also inside the book, with links to where to submit your feedback/review.

I appreciate if you send me the feedback as soon as you download and test the book. Then you can take your time to send a review or endorsement.

Once the results are in, if the system works, I will send you the step-by-step instructions on how to create tablet formats.


Why would you want this, when you can easily upload to Kindle? When you place a book in Kindle, you have to market it like crazy. But you need to do more. You need to study all the specific trends, rules and tricks to market for Kindle.

With that same effort, if you already have a site, a platform of followers, members or subscribers, you can sell your ebook to them directly and keep all the money without having to jump through hoops. Or you can do what John suggests, and spend the money paying commission to affiliated Joint Venture Partners that promote your book to their list. Either way, you don't have to jump through hoops to learn amazon system. If this appeals to you, I'll share how to do this with you at the end.

Thanks for your time, interest and attention. I look forward to your feedback.
