The Book of Forms on Kindle

 

Charles L. Weatherford posted on your Facebook Wall:

"Are there any plans to format The Book of Forms for Kindle?"

Charles

 

That’s a very good question, Charles. 

I don’t know. I will forward your query to my publisher and hope for a reply shortly. When I get it, I’ll post it on my blog at www.lewisturco.net and on my Facebook page. I bought my own Kindle just last week and am finishing reading the first book I ordered right now, the new biography of J. D. Salinger. 

Lewis

 

"I just got the DX. Being of Scots descent, I've been getting a lot of the classics that are available for free. But I also have a gift certificate and am getting a list of Kindleized books that cost money together. Yours would be a good one to carry around. It's nice to be capable of carrying 3,600 books everywhere we go without muscle strain."

Charles

 

I'm sold on the e-reader, Charles. 

As an author myself, with several books on Amazon's inventory, I must say that I am totally delighted with this method of buying and reading books. The Kindle is so simple to use, so easy on my arthritic hands and my elderly eyes, that I doubt I'll ever buy another unwieldy book.

Lewis

 

Hi Lewis,

We'd be happy to make The Book of Forms [Fourth Edition], available for the Kindle and other ebook formats. We'll add it to our conversion list. Expect it to be out at around the same time as the new edition of your book. [Scheduled for  August, 2011, publication.] 

Thanks!

David
