While I can't upload a Kindle-ebook version of my newly revised homeschooling book (slightly altered preface, Korean translation included), I can upload a print-on-demand, dead-tree version. In the past, the dead-tree version has proved bizarrely more popular than the cheaper ebook. Are homeschooling parents that old-school in their thinking that they need analog material? Maybe so, and really, I can't blame them. If you stuck me back in a language class, I'd probably want to stick to good old paper textbooks as well... although I'd definitely supplement the textbook with other media like Powerpoint (which is, truth be told, ancient by this point in history) or whatever the current presentation platform is.
The manuscript I'd just worked on is formatted for a B5-sized book. The Amazon size will be smaller at only 6" × 9", which means a ton more micro-adjustments.
The Sunday slog.
