anyone here actually read ebooks?

i run a lit mag and i'm trying to determine if it's worth the significant extra effort to put epub & kindle out there.

they barely sell. i do much better with the print editions. i'm just not sure if the audience is small but loyal, or if digital feels like a bonus addon that people take but never actually read.

please give me your insights!!! i need perspective outside my own. :)

boost too, if you'd be so kind.

@pixelpaperyarn I wrote one - am a uni prof by job and my paper book is expensive, and so when I wrote the second one, I chose to do it as an ebook with the hope that people would actually read it (I could make it cheap if I controlled it). -and that one's not academic in the same way. I'm beginning to think it is a completely separate audience. although I don't have a clue how to market/promote & think for sure I'm missing a trick in that, but I didn't learn it training as a cello player... :)
