Designing Ebooks Novels & Stories

“Ebooks are doing better at the moment than physical books. Did you want us to publish more ebooks? It’s quicker to publish those than actual books and we could get more titles out. We’re hitting the maximum amount you allowed us last year very quickly each month.” The billionaire considered her suggestion carefully. Ebooks were rising in popularity and had been for several years. Print book sales were also slowly declining. “I would be happy to raise your cap on ebook publishing as your department is doing very well. If the results aren’t good, I’ll put it back down. Remember that we want to publish decent works and not just any story,” he reminded her. Becca smiled at him. “Thank you for l

“And when will that be?” Peter looked at his calendar and put a large red circle around July 20. “Man lands on moon, Legal Briefs lands in bookstores.” “That’s only three weeks from now!” Rachel was stunned. “It’s the new age of electronic publishing. We’ll hit the e-book market first. It’s a good way to get some great pre-print publicity. We like to move fast. Speaking of fast, I have another meeting in...” Peter checked his watch, “...five minutes. We have your phone, fax and e-mail, so don’t stray too far from home. In the meantime, start thinking about your next book. I’d like to see an outline by the end of the week. Sandra, always a pleasure.”

“What do you do?” “Me? Oh.” I wrapped my fingers around the stem of my wine glass. Fuckfuckfuck. “I’m all dot com. Design—websites, graphics, book covers, and the like.” “Oooh, really?” The darker blonde—was it Abby?—asked. “Anything we’d know?” “Oh, no. Nothing big. Mostly for self-published authors. There’s a big market there right now.” “Oh, that’s lovely. I don’t have much time to read these days.”

In the meantime, enjoy my world of choices and characters that I hope you fall in love with and follow them on this quest called life. AESTHETICS A collection of wonderful photos, tagged as aesthetics has been carefully and almost perfectly created to meet both the pace and fashion of this book. Variety of applications, combined with the efforts of the author and graphic designers are responsible for the fancy pieces you see. As this book is somewhat filled with flashbacks, ensure that you read through each sentence at the top- Nevertheless, each flashback or any conversion are notably typed in italics for easy understanding. DEDICATION Dedicated to the team behind the writing and the source

Hayden explained, pointing to each design. “You shouldn’t judge a book by the cover.” Devon raised her voice. “In this line of work, a cover is the selling point of a book. Readers are more interested in the story than the design, but not all of them will read the back of the book to see what the story is about. The cover should be eye-catching and pleasing to the eye to grab their attention.” Hayden’s voice seemed to hold more conviction. “What do you know?” Devon’s snarky tone made me want to reach across the desk and grab her by the neck. “You are nothing more than an assistant and wouldn’t be able to do it any better.”

Chapter 40: The Living Archive The late afternoon sun was low over the East River. It cast a long amber glow through the windows of the Brooklyn studio. Elena sat at the head of the oak conference table. She was reviewing the structural layouts for the imprint’s upcoming autumn catalog. For over fifteen years her job had been to write stories that fit digital platforms. Now the pages in front of her were different. The pacing was set by the story itself.

Slowly, carefully, he lifted the book from its pedestal. “Got it," he whispered triumphantly. The eBook felt historical, its cover worn but still vibrant with problematic designs. He opened it to the first page, eyes scanning swiftly. The text changed into written in an antique dialect, but Michael had studied enough to apprehend the gist. This e book held secrets and techniques, powerful ones that might exchange the whole thing.

Time to kill two birds with one stone—get some fresh air to calm my mind and buy groceries! The supermarket was only a few blocks away. Fluorescent lights buzzed overhead, refrigerators hummed, and the air smelled like detergent and fruit. I grabbed a basket and started with basics: milk, eggs, bread, pasta, some fruit. Things that made me look like a functioning adult. As I moved through the aisles, my thoughts drifted to the website. Cover design, pricing, whether anyone would buy an ebook written by a woman whose name autofilled with “vehicular manslaughter” online.

She had mixed the color specifically for this book. The title was on the cover in a specific typeface—neither the aggressive modernity of certain contemporary books nor the antiquarian weight of the attempt at the classical. Something between. Something that Don had found in the specimen book and had chosen because, he said, the letterforms had the quality of having been made by someone who understood that the thing being named was both ancient and ongoing. The Inside Account. Don's name below it. The designer had set the text in a way that gave the words the space they needed—not crowded, not isolated. The book has an argument about the arrangement of things on a page.
