eBook authors are feeling a little left out when it came to booksignings, readings, and library visits. Fans are also feeling a bit neglected when they attend writer events and can’t have an autograph from their favorite authors because their book is in eFormat. Well, authors and fans it looks like Kindlegraph just might be the perfect solution.
While being at a booksigning in person, and actually seeing your favorite author sign a cherished book still can’t be beat, Kindlegraph seems to have a great concept for eAuthors. Readers and authors sign in using Twitter, they can select the book they want “cyber-signed“, that request is sent to the author and the author can digitally write an autograph or a longer, more personalized message. That message goes to the reader’s Kindle, and will appear on the authors book.
Authors need to register via Kindlegraph use the service.
This is really cool! What a great idea!
Total hugs on Mr. Evans who, as I understand it, developed the method for eBook authors to present their fans with an autographed cover image of their books over a 48-hour period.
Supported by DocuSign technology, Evans is causing an upheaval among naysayers of ePub. Now I’m watching Florida-born ‘Autography’ to see what that group of Smart Cookies bakes up!
