E-book Conversion Help
#2
RE: E-book Conversion Help
I think you have to look into motivation.

If your book gets torrented, that is fantastic news for you. It means your book is doing well enough that someone took the time to set up a tracker.

Also, it will give you good numbers to pitch for book #2.

I'll give you a good example. I bought Between the World and Me by Ta-nehesi Coates (which is an international bestseller.) I have the physical copy, and I wanted to read it over the holiday break. I never gave myself enough time, so it didn't get read, and now I'm back at work and I want to get the audiobook. I cannot find a copy of it online. It is super popular, but no one has uploaded the audiobook yet. I say this to point out that books don't get torrented sometimes even when they're popular. There had to be a pretty significant demand.

My point is that if there's enough of a demand, then you'll be only moderately annoyed, I promise.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
