reccommend ebook publisers?

[Buck Edge]

I'm a newbie author looking for an e-publisher. I've looked at Smashwords, IUniverse, and Publish Green.

Have you had any experience with these?

Any recommendations? Testimonials?

Thanks in advance.

I've used Smashwords and recommend them. There's also Amazon Kindle and, if you want to print copies, Amazon Createspace.

Just done my first through Amazon Direct Publishing and found it a little bit of a learning curve but there's plenty of help on formatting etc. Also doing CreateSpace which is proving more long-winded, and formatting was a pain, but first proof should be with me by 16th Feb. Doesn't help I'm in UK and printing is US based.

Also joined the lending scheme but that's not done anything much. Have to wait 90 days before it can be cancelled and until then Amazon have exclusive distribution rights.

Just a word to the wise, have the book proof read properly. So many e-publishers apparently fall down on that and wonder why their masterpiece goes nowhere. Guess I was lucky my OH is good at proof reading, she also did the cover
