E-publishing is a type of publishing where information is published to an online source, such as an email, a compact disk, or made available to an electronic reader, such as a Kindle, rather than published in a traditional printed book. There are both advantages and disadvantages to e-publishing. One advantage is that there is a faster turnaround time for writing to be published than with traditional printed works. While royalties tend to be higher when published electronically, a disadvantage is that electronically published works don't typically sell as many copies as traditional paper books.<ref>[http://www.wisegeek.org/what-is-e-publishing.htm What is E-Publishing?], Wise Geek, Retrieved 2014-04-23.</ref> | ||
