Book Distribution & Digital Editions
published by Eva Dillner & Divine Design
Since 2006, Eva Dillner’s books are published by Divine Design. Earlier editions by 1stBooks/Author House are being phased out with updated versions.
In print
Books and calendars are printed on demand at Lightning Source in the Unites States, the United Kingdom and Australia(2011) for shipping anywhere in the world. Availability is global, just about all internet retailers of books carry my titles, such as Amazon. Distributors include Ingrams, Baker & Taylor, Nielsen BookData, Bertrams, Gardners and Coutts. Special publisher direct discounts are available for large wholesale orders, such as to book clubs, library services and chain stores. Print on demand has taken a leap forward with the Espresso Book Machine. Get your book printed while you wait at these locations.
Audio Books
For digital audio I teamed up with Audible, the largest distributor of spoken word downloads in the world. The Audible service is compatible with close to 500 devices, including iPods and other MP3 players, smart phones, and PDA’s. Buy from Audible’s stores in the US, UK, France, and Germany as well as iTunes stores worldwide and of course Amazon.
Since Sweden is on the leading edge of innovative ways to distribute digital audio, I did my first two audio books in Swedish. Elib AB, in collaboration with Swedish on-line retailers and libraries make the audio books available for purchase as downloads to your computer. Via the libraries websites, you can listen to a streamed version of the books. Another Swedish distributor is Ztorm.
The easiest way yet to listen to audio books, preloaded audio players from Mi-Vox. Simple to use and reasonably priced for the technically challenged. Worldwide shipping from the UK.
Partners come and go. My aim is to do business with partners who are on the leading edge of the digital age. My audio books are no longer available via Audiobox, Mediejukeboxen and Biblioteksspelaren.
E-books
The proliferation of e-book readers of late is astonishing. The first to carry my titles in the English speaking world was Amazon's Kindle. Ingram distributes e-books worldwide to on-line stores such as Diesel Ebook Store in MS Lit, Adobe pdf and Epub formats. Via the Elib distribution network, my books are also available for purchase and as library loans in Sweden in MobiPocket, Adobe (pdf and Epub) and MsReader. Latest addition is the Apple iBooks with ebooks in the Epub format for the iPad.
