Tip O'Day for Authors #172

Guest blogger Suzy Turner on using your book reader to help your writing.
If you have a Kindle or Nook and want to read your manuscript on your device before you upload it to Amazon, etc, convert the file super easily (from Word to Mobi for example) via zamzar.com. It's a great way to spot any little errors that may have been missed in the editing process.

Dixon says: Also, Kindles have a read-back feature. Download your manuscript and listen to it in either a male or female voice. Any mistakes will jump out at you. The male voice seems more natural, less robotic.
