Amazon's A Jerk (Again) | How to Make Money with Short Fiction in 2021
May 3, 2021
Amazon's changing things up, but not really. Or maybe. We don't know. But they're kinda mean. Want to write short fiction and make more money from it? Listen to this. Links: - Amazon no longer supporting MOBI - “We listened to your feedback and are making it simpler to publish eBooks on Kindle. Starting June 28, 2021, we will no longer support files in MOBI, PRC or AZK formats when publishing new reflowable eBooks or updating the content for previously published eBooks. Instead, we ask publishers to use EPUB, KPF (Kindle Create files), or DOC/DOCX (Microsoft Word files) files for reflowable eBooks. Please note MOBI files are still accepted for fixed-layout eBooks.” - Amazon the Steamroller: https://www.thepassivevoice.com/how-amazon-wins-by-steamrolling-rivals-and-partners/ - How DWS makes a living (in 2021!) with short fiction: https://www.deanwesleysmith.com/making-a-living-with-short-fiction-2021/
