Just curious if any folks here do it, to what extent and what kind of success can you normally expect for decent quality material. I have always wondered generally how people do selling E books on line. Also, can anyone recommend a great book for creating online streams of income. Something that is highly practical would be great. I know there are a couple of people on here who do this so would love to hear some of their wisdom. Thanks in advance. Cheers
Never tried it, but I would imagine that it is very hit and miss. There are millions of books/ebooks available, and without too much trouble you can get them free somewhere. The time and effort to write and sell one would probably far out way the financial benefit - unless you managed to get it to go 'viral'. If you write it for your own pleasure and can then make a few $$ off it, then get after it I say! Blacky
Part Flynn from Smart Passive Income has interviewed a few eBook writers who apparently have made a small fortune. Good interviews in the ones below and there's more similar examples but can't remember which podcasts they were; Nathan has earned well over $200,000 by self-publishing eBooks on his website, and he shares all of his strategies and how it all happened here on today’s show.

I only know of one person who had done it successfully. They apparently make a killing - writing and selling erotic fiction. Not sure if that's the genre you were thinking of though

I sell E-books on the net . . but only really to the Australian Market. Makes me around $4,000 a year which isn't a lot, but at least my Hobby makes money rather than costs me. Around 90% comes from one title called 'Guide to anewhouse PCI'.
I wonder if we know the same person ... she's does very nicely thank you writing and selling "space porn" (her words). Her books only sell at 99c-1.99 but they are fun walloping rides for a quick read - apparently
