My, you're getting old! Aging is an interesting phenomenon. We're all aware of what aging brings about: aches and pains, fading memory, the discovery that you have a favorite easy chair, a new-found interest in Viagra. Yet we don't see the effects of the aging process on a day-to-day basis. Like evolution, it takes a long time for age-related deterioration to become apparent. And when it does, the discovery can be an unpleasant experience -- or at least an instructive one.
Smashwords I was very excited to stumble upon Smashwords today. Many bloggers publish e-books, either to sell or to give away as promotional items. The problem is choosing a format to publish in.
