I have found an excellent free coaching resource, or should I say, 3 free coaching resources. Mark Coker of Smashwords has 3 free Kindle ebooks on how to write, format, and publish your ebook. Each of these free ebooks takes on a different subject in writing your own ebook. If you have never heard of Mark Coker, you probably had heard of Smashwords. Smashwords is a platform for indie book writers and publishers to market their books. I could do an entire post on Smashwords by itself, but it seems more appropriate to also tell you about the ebooks, so you get an idea of how to optimize your Smashwords experience. You can check out Smashwords at: www.smashwords.com
The first thing you need to do is format your ebook. Mark has shown exactly how to do this in his ebook "Smashwords Style Guide - How to Format Your Ebook." Mark covers the various points on editing and formating your ebook before sending it to be published. There are tips in here that I have not heard of and I have paid for workshops that teach this subject.
