• Some interesting info on Malachi Martin that he wasn't who he said he was in the interviews

  Would check out this small book series written from the woman from smashwords.com which is more like her own personal memoir of what she went through in life with religion as well called "Disguised as a Man: Malachi Martin & Me" with a picture she took from his archives of him while they were together, with him younger on the front of the ebook series. She goes into minute detail of how they met in New York and... Source: 10 months ago

• Best place to buy ebooks that are not amazon?

  I also know that there is ebooks.com and smashwords.com, but I've never really used them and the prices always come up in dollars to me. Source: over 1 year ago

• I write gay erotica for extra money. AMA

  Really nasty? Go to smashwords.com and search for what you're looking for, and when you find it, buy it, read it, then write a story like that, only better. Source: over 2 years ago

• Where to Buy ePubs for the RM2?

  eBooks.com and smashwords.com for DRM-free eBooks, the latter self-published works. Source: over 2 years ago

• Good Self-Publishing Company?

  This question makes me think really hard, lol. You may not get much hand holding from most self-publishing platform companies. They'll have forums and/or Q/A's for you to refer to. I had to do a lot of research, reading other self-published authors journey's and Googling to answer my questions. Most self-publishing is trial and error, if you don't have a mentor/coach who has already taken that path and could walk... Source: over 2 years ago

• MLIS books available digitally?

  Check out https://openlibrary.org. You can search ´library science’, librarian’, etc, and something should come up. Just select the ‘ebooks’ option to search for items within the collection. And you can narrow the search by subject, etc. Source: 7 months ago

• NaNoWriMo: National Novel Writing Month

  Right now I'm in the middle of the chicken and the egg problem where we don't have enough authors cataloging their publications and b/c of that obviously readers are not interested in using the site. I've gone back and forth with taking Open Libray's [0] catalog as that would at least flesh out our collection of books but then I'd have to deal with verifying authors to accounts so they can access their books.... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• YSK: You can access many old and out of print hiking books from the Internet Archive's Open Library

  The Internet Archive runs what they call the Open Library, which is a unique concept on the traditional library. You can sign-up with minimal details and digitally check out many scanned books from libraries all over the world. The only caveat is that almost all of the books are older editions - ones that would be impossible to find locally. It's great if you're looking for old routes, a look back in time, details...

• Searching for a pharmacy book

  I want to clarify that I'm a non-US citizen, so accessing physical copies from US libraries or buying it from Amazon might not be feasible for me. To give you some context, my personal research was guided by the wiki section of r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH (https://www.reddit.com/r/FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH/wiki/reading/). I've conducted research using various online resources, including the Ebook & Open Source/Access Libraries... Source: 9 months ago
