First things first.
Authors, do not sell your electronic rights to the paper publisher. Retain them for yourself. If the publisher argues with you, get another publisher.
I have written four best-selling books on New Astrology© and The Chinese Zodiac. I own all my electronic rights and you should too.
I sell all my books as digital downloads on my web site. I even sell chapters of my books as downloads. I have been doing it for years with great success.
Secondly, if a publisher gets lazy or isn’t doing your book justice, ask for your rights back. I did it a couple of years ago and the publisher (Harper) finally let go. The book needed updating. I was the only one who could do it. They didn’t want to pay me. Now I am publishing that book digitally and selling it on my site as well as for Kindle and on a site I own on Facebook.
Defend yourselves. And by the way, I checked out Scribd. A mess. Their terms are appalling. They win. You lose. Typical.
Good luck, Suzanne White

Hmmm….Hi Suzanne- Thanks for your comment. Did you mispost it though? Our post is about success stories and never mentions selling electronic rights, Scribd, or lazy publishers. But thanks for the tip.
