Indeed eBooks have several shortcomings. Sometimes we have difficulties to read ebook due to we need to use some tools to read the ebook. Although there is now ebook reader a very practical, but the price is still quite expensive for Indonesian.

Despite this, sometimes we feel the book has its own sensations when we turn back the pages. Frankly I agree with that. There was a sense of pride and satisfaction when we have a conventional book.

But we also have to think that ebook has a certain extraordinary and provide far greater benefits than the book. Below are described the main 10 reasons why we should switch to ebook:

1. 1. eBooks have made us save space and time. We save place where we store our books collection. Was time, we do not need to keep the books for fear to buy a new one when we lost a collection of books.
2. 2. If you like to mark things that are important in the book but was afraid to damage or make a bad book because of graffiti, the eBook reader lets you mark important points in the ebook without making bad as graffiti.
3. 3. If a publisher sells a million copies with 250 pages per copy for a book. That means 12,000 trees needed to produce a single book title only (source: “How to Go Green: Books” by Cindy Katz and Jennifer Wilkov). That means we have contributed to the destruction of the environment when reading a book.
4. 4. If you feel in a font size too small, the ebook reader allows us to change font size easily. So no problems because of the size of the letters.
5. 5. eBook reader can subscribe to newspapers or magazines online. So no need to wait newspaper deliveryman walked into our house.
6. 6. We do not bother to go to book stores because we can download ebook online from home. This saves time for shopping and searching for books on the shelves of book stores.
7. 7. It will never run out of stock. Because the ebook is available in digital form, so it will always be available at all times.
8. 8. Ebook reader does not require lighting when reading ebook. Because its display is able to illuminate. So we can save electrical energy.
9. 9. Regarding the file size and capacity. We must be honest, ebook requires a small file that a small ebook device can accommodate thousands of ebook. Imagine how easy it is to school because we just brought a novel instrument capable of storing thousands of ebooks.
10. 10. We can save money. eBooks course much cheaper price than the book. Because not require resources and a large production costs.

Now more advanced information technology. Wherever we are, even though it was in the corner of the world, still can communicate with people in other parts of the world. Yes … internet that can connect people from one end to the other end of the world.

Also for media sharing information and media science, when a few years ago we were still using these media in physical form, eg paper, in the form of books, magazines and other newspapers. So now the media does not have the paper anymore. Or maybe in the future we will not use it anymore. But the medium changes in digital form, That E-book, or Electronic Books.

Why E-book?? There are several advantages of media information and knowledge in the form of an e-book.

1. Because the format in digital form, e-book form rather than hard copy softcopy. More concise so do not need a place to store large, as well as books, which require a shelf / cupboard and room to store them. E-book only requires storage media such as hard disks in PCs or laptops, floppy disks, CDs and now have Flash Disk that looks small and can be taken anywhere.

2. System e-book delivery is very fast, only takes a few minutes even in seconds. Compare when we send the book, can take days.

3. Media send an e-book is very practical. We can send an e-book via email and within seconds was accepted by the people we send an e-book. Or we can upload on the Internet and throughout the world can download the e-book.

4. The cost to print the e-book is very cheap. Even be free if you already have an existing computer program MS-Word and PDF Writer, and the cost of electricity from the computer are ignored. Compare if you print a book with 200 pages of thick books in 1000, printing costs could be around 10 million rupiahs … the value is not very expensive. When compared with the print e-book is almost free, regardless of the amount which we will print up to unlimited, no printing costs will add to the e-book.

5. E-book will not be-broken. During the data we do not have a virus, and this can be prevented by the use of computer and careful installation of anti-virus software, e-books will remain in good condition even though it was already tens of years. Compare this with the book, which are easily damaged, torn, missing, fade and mildew writing when age is an annual book.

But until now there is a lack of e-book, which is Leisure. We usually like to read in a comfortable condition, such as sleeping, relaxing on the couch, sitting relaxed in the park. As we do when reading a book. When reading e-books we have in front of your PC or laptop computer. Sometimes we do not look strong with the monitor for long. Tired from sitting too long in front of the PC.

But I’m sure one day there will be a medium for reading e-books are friendly, so it gives comfort when reading. And really…Now there are so many ebook readers, for instant Amazon Kindle, Sony PRS, Bebook, Hanlin etc.

Every writer must have a dream to publish a book. For writers who already have a name in the books publishing it can be something easy. But the difference is for beginner writers. They are usually very difficult to penetrate the world of book publishing.

There are many reasons why the beginner faced trouble to publish the book:

1. No doubt that talking about books publishing industry is about profit. Of course the publisher will select manuscripts from writers who are well known by the public for publication. Rather than the script from beginner,

2. In general, the senior author who has had a script that is more qualified than novice writers. Although this theory is not always true. It may be that beginner authors have more quality writing, interesting and better than the senior author. Only opportunity and time has not catapulted his name.

3. Author beginners are usually not aware of market trends of books that are frowned upon in society. Novice writers write what he wanted to write. They are not following what is going popular in the market. That’s why when the writers sent it the publishers rejected the manuscript because it does not match market tastes.

4. And a very common is the writers do not understand the procedures, conditions and steps in sending the manuscript to a publisher that the manuscript be published.

Actually there is another way that authors can publish the manuscript. That is self publishing. With a self-published manuscript, the author was removing one obstacle. That was rejected by publishers.

It’s just self-published means of capital to print a book should be removed from their own pockets. For a book that cost Rp. 40,000, including print production costs typically 25% of the price of books. When we printed 1000 copies, it required fund of Rp. 10 million. That’s not including deal with distribution and the affairs of the bookstore and other parties. It’s not pictured, troublesome!

But now the world has changed so much. The development of information technology and the internet has become more advanced. For writers there is a very, very cheap to publish the manuscript. Even be zero dollars if you already have the computer.

Yes … we could publish our manuscript in the form of an e-book. E-book or electronic book is also called a digital book can overcome the impasse we are to publish the book. We just change the text in MS Word to PDF form. With PDF Creator software that can be downloaded free from the internet, we are able to publish the manuscript in the form of an e-book.

Now what purpose we publish the manuscript? If we just want our script read by the general public without material want the reward (money). So we live on the internet and upload to inform the public to download our script for free.

But if our goal other than to spread knowledge and information from our script, also want the material rewards (money). So we can sell it on the internet. With capitalize internet connection then we can make it as one’s own business.

How Publishes Manuscript without dealing with publishers?

How to make our manuscript as Self’s Own Business?
