This short new book by Meunier, a hybrid indie manifesto and how-to guide, features one core argument: the publishing industry is changing and it’s okay to write and publish “short” Kindle books.At about 20,000 words, it’s no coincidence that this book is its own case in point. Told in Meunier’s usual approachable voice, he lays out his argument neatly and with unrelenting passion and encouragement to the reader. I’ve definitely read much longer books that conveyed a lot less information.This book is both an argument for and one of the best examples of the right way to write a short kindle book. If you are at all considering writing for Kindle, you should absolutely read this book.

If you're looking for a basic overview on ebooks this is ok. It's kind of a wordy PowerPoint but let's be more positive. The book does a good job of explaining the benefits of writing shorter books and the $0.99 to $2.99 price points. However, as a guide to actually doing the work of writing and selling an ebook I found it lacking. I was particularly interested in learning how to promote an ebook since, like most folks buying this genre I have an idea of how I'll write one, but that section was extremely weak. In fact, the author wrote that he was saving his promotion insights for another book. I would think a "Self-Publishing Manifesto" might include more than a hundred words or so on promotion and selling the final product. That was very disappointing and is the primary reason for my low, 2-star, rating.

I've become a huge fan of Nathan Meunier's work. Nathan has done a great job of leading the reader through the minefield that has sunk many a prospective writer's dreams. In past works, he has walked you through the process from "I'd love to write for...", to making the initial contact, all the way to getting published.As a matter of fact, it works so well, I'm in the process of getting published for one of my industry trade magazines.With his latest book, Nathan again leads you to the promised land for any prospective author.Self Publishing. More importantly, he guides you away from the never finished, in progress, War and Peace length novel that would make you rich and famous if you could just finish it.Nathan shows you the small crack in the ivory tower of the notoriously difficult to enter publishing industry, and educates you on how to take advantage of it. By using the short Kindle Book format, it makes the insurmountable, manageable and a lot less intimidating. More importantly, it allows you to plant a seed in that crack in the ivory tower, that if you nurture and develop, could lead to a nice little piece of the dream becoming yours.After all, it's hard enough to get into the publishing industry, it becoming a successful career is a lot more likely if you take a journey of a thousand steps with a first small step versus jumping to the top at your first try. I'd write more, but I've got the urge now to take a few more steps on that journey thanks to this book.

Like all of Nathan's books, this is well written and has a lot of character, but this one is especially great because of how it changes your approach to publishing. This book really encompasses how publishing is changing in this new age, and how it is a better idea to release your product as a series of smaller books, rather than a large comprehensive tome.I really enjoyed this book and it is something I will continue to reference and flip through as I endeavor further into my publishing career. If you are planning to publish something on Kindle, you must read this book before you start getting really serious about it. It can steer you in a more manageable and profitable direction.

Nathan once again releases a must read book made to help out his fellow authors. Anyone that has read any of Nathan's previous books will know that he has always written with a little bit of his own spin of goofy humor. Although I have always enjoyed these tidbits that he throws in to his books, Write Short Kindle Books has a much lower amount of them, keeping this book with a nice quick read flow to it. This book also helped me decide to keep my own book indie, rather than attempting to find a publisher to work with. Why you ask? Read the book and find out. Nathan does a great job with the pros and cons of being an indie writer, what types of books work better as short kindle books, and how to keep them coming. If you enjoyed any of Nathan's previous books, you will not be disappointed with giving this one a read as well, and if you haven't tried one of Nathan's books? Shame on you.

Nathan Meunier explains why authors should write short kindle books, how to price them, how to write them quickly and how to optimize them for online sales.I was aware of many of the strategies mentioned prior to reading this book and I'd like to confirm that they do work.What I found particularly useful was chapter 4 on six common types of short kindle books you can write. I will be reading this one again.In this digital era self-published authors have such a huge advantage over traditionally published authors, since they have all the control as far as both content and promotion are concerned. This book will show you how to leverage this advantage.Alinka Rutkowska, author of HOW I SOLD 80,000 BOOKS: Book Marketing for Authors (Self Publishing through and Other Retailers)
