Another 2012 Tank & Ferry Entertainment project we've been planning is almost up and running. You will be able to buy my books as ebooks from my website. Tank and I are in the midst of setting it up now, and we are excited about it because it offers readers greater flexibility.
The world economy, bless its heart, is going through a tough time. In this economic climate, 'the book', as we know it, is not cheap to produce and often more expensive to buy than we'd like. At Tank & Ferry, our goal is to produce the best book your money can buy. Our novels are essentially handcrafted, and once we have finished crafting them exactly the way we want them down to the smallest detail, we then send the electronic files to be printed/published at Vivid Publishing in Fremantle, WA, we hold copies for sale at our office (kitchen central), and our publisher/distributor places the files on the Ingram system for Print on Demand (POD) anywhere in the world.

The ebook, on the other hand, is both more affordable to produce and to purchase. It may not be that whole 'touchy feely-let me inhale you, your bookish perfume makes me dizzy with delight' experience we're used to, but ebooks are fantastic, and our ebook sales are up. As my rather savvy publicist says, "It's the way of the future." eBook docs are also created here at Tank & Ferry. The files of the novels must be stripped back of all the fancy details (fonts, layouts, etc.) that adorned the paperback version, right down to their simplest format so that they will be compatible across all the e-reader platforms. These simplified files are then sent to the publisher where they are converted into ebooks, called epub, and distributed on the Ingram system also. You can purchase Heartland and Empire for Liberty as paperback and ebook from online bookstores all over the world.
You will be able to purchase ebooks direct from www.terrisedmak.com soon.
