How to buy and read an e-book (some FAQs)

Q: How can I get your e-books? I don’t have Kindle, or the others you mention, and I don’t know how to use iTunes or Smashwords. I DO have a Mac computer but I don’t know about the book features. Help!

A: If you visit the Kindle Store on Amazon you can download a free Kindle Reader app for your Mac or Windows computer, or even for your iPhone or iPad that will let you read Kindle books. You can also now access the new free Kindle Cloud Reader that will let you read Kindle books instantly using only your web browser – online or offline – with no downloading or installation required. (So far, the Cloud Reader only works with some browsers.)

You can also get the book through the iTunes store using your Mac iTunes software. That version can be read with Apple’s free eBook Reader for iPhone or iPad. Finally, if you visit the Smashwords store they also sell the book in a PDF format that you can read from any computer and download to print.
