I am really enjoying the MagicCafe. My wife is a publish mystery writer (18 Traditionally Published novels and seven non-fiction. Since the big changes in publishing, I haev been working part time formatting eBooks for various fiction writers so that they can sell their books through Amazon, B&N, Apple, Sony etc. Where (if it is permissible) should I mention the services for formatting eBooks that I offer? I see a lot of magicians talking about eBooks.
Many thanks and if this is not "the thing to do" I understand 100% Rik |

Rik, it sounds like this would be a part time business for you and as such, any posts talking about the service would be considered advertising. Advertising must be paid for.

If a question is asked and Rik has an answer, can he give answers without mentioning any for-pay service?
If a question is asked and it's obvious to Rik the person needs direct assistance, can Rik say "shoot me a PM for more info" and stay within bounds? Not trying to start any wars or dig into the Café's business here. But we do see a lot of posts that mention "my book/DVD/other product might help you". And we've also seen some people banned for such stuff among their other faults. Is there a set of guidelines to keep people on the right side of the line? Ed |

Thank you so much for the input. My "part time formatting business" is VERY part time and mostly for my wife's friends and I do not want to break any rules, written or implied. If it is even a shade of grey I would rather say nothing than offend anyone.
This place has helped me SO MUCH - I want to be an active member and not a PITA. Cheers all. Rik |

Ed, absolutely. That's what the Café is about. Magicians helping magicians. Questions and answers can be posted as long as it isn't advertising.
