Re: Sell ebook on Lulu or with clickbank

I'll join the others in advocating offering a variety of eBook 
formats. If you want to offer your book in Palm format but don't want 
to invest in the eReader software, you may want to look into 
OpenOffice's Aportis Palm DOC format. (They also offer a PDF 
conversion--although it's not especially compact).

I haven't used LuLu for eBooks but have used them for paperback--a 
nice quality of product, good worldwide shipping, nice packaging, and 
they handle the payments. I've moved to Amazon's POD with several of 
my more recent books as the price per copy is lower (at least for US 
shipment).

I think you'll find that you won't generate a whole lot of sales from 
LuLu that you don't generate yourself. 

Best of luck. The good news is, it's easy to get into electronic 
publishing. That's also the bad news for those of us who try to make 
a living at it.
