Publish a short story
I have been writing a draft about the hiking in Memorial Day weekend and plan to publish as a free Kindle book. Since this is just a report for a hiking, I was thinking a free edition. Finally, the draft is ready and I tried to publish it tonight.
But ..... It does not seem that there is no option to publish as a free book. I have not done enough research about a free Kindle book and it was a problem. I decided not to publish it tonight. I thought there are many free books in Kindle store and I thought it would be easy. I am not sure if there is a way to publish a free book or not. At least the same process I went through when I publish a Japanese book for Mt. Whitney hiking does not have such option at all. The minimum price I could choose is USD 99 cents.
I was thinking just publish as 99 cents. However the contents is really short and it might be too short to publish a book with some price. I might need to do more research if there is any way to do and I might need to add more contents. I was really disappointed....
There is an option to publish as free with limited period and it could be an option. I just think about the business model. If a free publishing is allowed, then Amazon won't make any profit with this. Then, it might not be a option to publish a book as free forever. I will consider what would be a good way, I can share the information with many people.
