The digital version of
A Suitable Husband has recently been released by AUK- an English company that is better known in the publishing world for producing digital books for mainstream publishers. They offer no editing, just preparation of the manuscript and a cover. However, the contract states that the author guarantees the manuscript has been professionally edited. I much prefer the digital cover - what do you think?

Lots of writers are going down the self publishing route with varying degrees of success; some have sold many thousands others only a handful. Not being technical in the slightest I decided AUK could do the things that I couldn't and I wouldn't have to endure hours of frustration or get a cover designed. I'll let you know whether I think my decision was a sound one.

A Suitable Husband was my second book released by Robert Hale and was published in 2006. Reading it with hindsight, after having written more than thirty books, I could see several things I wouldn't do now. However, I still love my hero - an ex-soldier based closely on Sean Bean's betrayal of Sharpe - and there's enough action and romance to keep you turning the page. If you missed
A Suitable Husband six years ago then you can now access it on your Kindle or other digital device.
All my books are available as e-books - either with Musa/Aurora or regencyreads.

Lovely cover - one of Frederick Leighton's paintings? It's certainly his style.
ReplyDeleteIs it? I thought they had done it themselves as it has the several relevant things in it. Thanks for that.
ReplyDeletei prefer digital copies of books. e-books are more portable since you can read it with out the actual book. its edges wont fold and you can use your phone to read it.
ReplyDeleteI preferred reading Diane Gabaldon's
ReplyDeleteCross stitch's on Kindle -I've bought the next two but the print is far too small for comfortable reading.
Call me old fashioned, but I am very much addicted to the smell of a new book. I will have a hard time meeting up with the times.
ReplyDeleteI shall always buy the print version of books I want to keep. Digital is great but lets hope we keep both.
