Hey there! Dipping my toes into the subforum; I usually stick to the comics/graphic novels section (and a few others), but I recently launched a title (IN MAPS & LEGENDS) on various eReaders/phone/tablet apps and had a few questions for those who know more than I do about these things.
Basically, I teamed up with a writer, and we've started releasing our comic as a new issue every 6 or so weeks. We're available as PDF, on iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch apps (all in the "Books" section), Android phone apps, and on Kindle. We would LOVE to be available on more eReaders.
We looked into formatting with Smashwords, since that seems to be the simplest way I've found to get into various eReader retailers. But Smashwords itself can't handle graphic-heavy files, and just gives errors. I know that the formatting itself would work on eReaders (digital comic Valentine is released as .epub, but the writer has had to run the store herself on her site), so it's a Smashwords thing.
Anyone have any solutions or recommendations for alternatives we can check out?
Thanks in advance!
