Are you selling on any other ebook platforms yet; like OverDrive for libraries, or in B&N's store? Do you sell physical copies through Lulu or their competitors? What do you use to track analytics if you use multiple platforms? Did you ever think about formatting with Markdown ever during the process? Can you expand upon why you chose $3 as the selling price for your ebook?
I realize these are quite a few questions, but I value your input given your experience. It's a very interesting world in self-publishing today.
Selling on other platforms: Not yet. KDP Select prohibits me from selling the digital version anywhere else. Unsure of whether this was a good decision or not, but I'm stuck for the next 90 days.
I did consider using Book Baby for distribution. I still might come march.
Physical copies: I'll be submitting the book to CreateSpace once the designer I'm working with finishes the cover.
Pricing: Pricing is a known unknown for me. $3 is as cheap as I can go while retaining the 70%. Below $2.99 and it goes down to 35%. Should I price it at $5? $7? $9.99? I'm not sure. Seth Godin has interesting thoughts on this: http://www.thedominoproject.com/2011/12/how-much-should-an-e...
