Hard copy books to kindle - best way to proceed?

4 replies
I have someone who is published through createspace for their hard copy books. He now realizes he needs to get kindle versions of these books created.

What is the most painless way to do this kind of transfer? Anyone have any recommended services for this kind of thing?

    If it's through CreateSpace, he should have the option to publish on Kindle in his Dashboard under the "Distribute" section.

    It should be a fairly simple process if it's set up through CreateSpace.

    If he needs help, let me know.

    Createspace provides that service. I think there is a way to "connect" the books into a single amazon listing. I'd ask kindle directly because they would be able to give you a step by step.

    Another tip would be to update the covers and listing to say the books are now in digital and print.

    Best of luck
