Hi MJ,

Did you ever consider publishing The Millionaire Fastlane as an eBook rather than a physical book? If so, why did you decide to go directly with selling hardcopies?

How would you describe the writing process and marketing process differences between these two? How hard was it for you to get The Millionaire Fastlane published as an hardcopy?

I problem I have with ebooks is that when I think of them it doesn't sound or feel legitimate. I have never bought an ebook in my life unless it was also available as a popular hardcopy. If I see somebody marketing their book and it is only available as an ebook through their website, something doesn't feel like. There is less authority and legitimacy. This is just my own impression. As a result, I'm afraid others will feel the same way and shy away if I do decide to create a ebook.

I do understand it is all about niche markets, but still, I can't help but wonder how hard it is to get a hardcopy out there into the market and onto amazon.com.
