Paper?

I need to look into this in a little bit more detail, but I thought I'd check out the interest first.

The series I have listed for sale on Amazon right now (which has just dropped in price! Helpful link!) is for the Kindle only, i.e. electronic book format only. You don't need a Kindle to read the books, but you do need to be able to buy the books from the Amazon store and use a computer/phone to read them. Amazon also has an option called createspace that would allow me to upload the books, and they would be printed on demand for those who ordered them. I believe there is a small setup fee (I think I have to buy an ISBN for each, for instance), and considering the number of ebooks I have sold so far, I'm not sure that the setup fee would be worth the cost, but a part of me does like the idea of the books also existing in physical copies. I know that Amazon apparently doesn't have a Kindle store in every country (which surprises me), so createspace might be a good option for people who can't buy Kindle books or would prefer a print version.

So, if you're interested, let me know in a comment here - whether you're interested in existing books being published that way, or future ones being published that way. Or if you're a Kindle reader who wouldn't take advantage of paper versions being available, let me know that too. :)
