Smashwords has just announced that authors who publish through its system may choose to have their books distributed through the Kindle Store. This is big news indeed for writers seeking publication and distribution. Details of the arrangements with Amazon and its authors are spelled out in its announcement press release. With this development, Smashwords now can publish to all of the major e-book formats, making an author’s book available on virtually all current e-book readers.
By the way, did you know that one week ago, Amazon made available to the public a FREE downloadable reader for Kindle books on one’s PC. One can now read Kindle titles without having to purchase the expensive reader.
As you already know, the Kindle Reader has gone international, with its e-book readers to be available in many countries. There was a hitch with Canada, however. This problem has been resolved, as explained in a post on the Publisher’s Weekly daily blog.
Smashwords has also announced with the past few days distribution arrangements with two major international ebook distributors. Read the announcement about arrangements with Shortcovers, a major online distributor. We’ve already announced the acquisition of BookHabit by Smashwords, but here’s a full announcement of this development.

What are you doing for Black Friday?
So Belle de Jour was real after all. The Internet’s most famous anonymous sex blogger – turned best-selling author – turned internationally successful TV series – has finally outed herself in the UK’s Sunday Times. And it turns out she’s a character straight from the pages of XKCD.
From her interview with the Times’ India Knight, we learn that Belle is in fact Dr Brooke Magnanti a specialist in developmental neurotoxicology and cancer epidemiology who ran out of money during the final stages of her PhD thesis and decided to become an escort to make ends meet. So to speak. Add in the fact that Magnanti was already a reasonably well known science blogger and ‘The Secret Diary of a London Call Girl‘ was born.
Despite Belle’s growing fame, and the determined efforts of journalists around the world to out her, Belle’s anonymity remained intact – mainly thanks to a complex series of agents and shell companies that allowed her to receive payment for her work without compromising her identity. Even her agent didn’t know her real name until this week when Belle herself chose to out herself, granting an interview to Knight, one of her harshest critics.
A better example of someone operating on her own terms it’s hard to imagine. Anonymous bloggers everywhere can read Belle’s story and take heart in the fact that it really is possible to be both successful and anonymous in the Internet age.
There’s just one problem: it isn’t.
