Literary Blogs on Kindle

Last week Amazon.com, Inc. launched a blog syndication program, allowing any blogger to make their content available on Kindle. A number of literary blogs have already joined the program.

The Literary Saloon is compiling a list of book bloggers available on the Kindle. As GalleyCat reported, Amazon determines the pricing for each blog, and writers receive a 30 percent cut of the revenues.

Here’s more from the list, including a link to our Kindle feed. “Conversational Reading (blog); The Elegant Variation (blog); Galley Cat (blog); Jacket Copy (blog); the Literary Saloon; Maud Newton (blog); The Millions (blog); Paper Cuts (blog); [Three Percent] and Smart Bitches Trashy Books (blog). Several of these already have a sales rank, meaning that they have actual subscribers (some blogs, such as Maud Newton’s, have also been available on Kindle for a longer time), so there must be some sort of market for this.”

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion‘s Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook’s Morin Oluwole, and bitly’s Tim Devane. Register now.
