Finally! My first Kindle book The Meaning of Life is available on Amazon. It took a lot longer than I expected that it would (as I grumbled about in the last post). I hit some further snags, and still have a few to get past. None the less it is done and the next one will be easier. I still have to create a paperback version which is snagged at the moment. And I plan to read it myself (and edit the audio) for the Audible version. No doubt more snags are awaiting there. Grumbling aside, this is a lot of fun and will be more fun as I figure out what I am doing.
I should also point out that I did the cover art myself (in case that isn't obvious) for a reason. I plan to publish several books and thought the sketched cover art would allow me to express ideas that might be more difficult to express through a real graphics artist. Further, I thought the unprofessional looking sketch would be a signature element of all upcoming covers. And, I thought it would stand out on Amazon, which it does. We will see if that was a good idea or not.
