Another best book of all time joins the Writers' Club!
About this book:
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (or, in more recent editions, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn) is a novel by Mark Twain, first published in England in December 1884 and in the United States in February 1885. Commonly named among the Great American Novels, the work is among the first in major American literature to be written throughout in vernacular English, characterized by local color regionalism. It is told in the first person by Huckleberry "Huck" Finn, a friend of Tom Sawyer and narrator of two other Twain novels (Tom Sawyer Abroad and Tom Sawyer, Detective). It is a direct sequel to The Adventures of Tom Sawyer.
The book is noted for its colorful description of people and places along the Mississippi River. Satirizing a Southern antebellum society that had ceased to exist about twenty years before the work was published, Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is an often scathing look at entrenched attitudes, particularly racism.
Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland
About this book:
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (commonly shortened to Alice in Wonderland) is an 1865 novel. Written by English author Charles Lutwidge Dodgson under the pseudonym Lewis Carroll. It tells of a girl named Alice who falls down a rabbit hole into a fantasy world populated by peculiar, anthropomorphic creatures. The tale plays with logic, giving the story lasting popularity with adults as well as children. It is considered to be one of the best examples of the literary nonsense genre, and its narrative course and structure, characters and imagery have been enormously influential in both popular culture and literature, especially in the fantasy genre.

Another Midwest Journal Writers' Club Selection
About this book:

Alice is feeling bored while sitting on the
riverbank with her sister, when she notices a talking, clothed White
Rabbit with a pocket watch run past. She follows it down a rabbit
hole when suddenly she falls a long way to a curious hall with many
locked doors of all sizes. She finds a small key to a door too small
for her to fit through, but through it she sees an attractive garden.
She then discovers a bottle on a table labelled "DRINK ME",
the contents of which cause her to shrink too small to reach the key
which she has left on the table. A cake with "EAT ME" on it
causes her to grow to such a tremendous size her head hits the
ceiling...
How to publish 4 ebook versions simultaneously on Lulu, iTunes, B&N, and Kobo
Here's a how-to on getting used to publishing public domain books (and your own work) easily and simply.
This project was started to give writers a way to find the all-time bestsellers of classic fiction so they could study and improve their craft (as Stephen King advised in his "On Writing.")
The other thing public domain books are good for is to streamline your own publishing efforts so you can get a book you've written up and online for purchase simply, quickly, easily.
Online distributors, as a whole, don't appreciate public domain books. They aren't big profit-makers. And get-rich-quick knuckleheads will try to get their own version up and try to "make money" with the least effort. Frankly, books that are in this category make very little money these days - unless you add in additional value. But know that their glory days are long gone. However, that makes your marketing that much easier, as at least they've had glory days - and so are fairly well known already.

Top bestseller fiction book list almost complete
Been hard at this recently, getting all your books ready. Just 4 more to go at this point.
Then, I'll come back and start telling you about each and every one. In doing that, I'll polish them up a bit more (doing double-checks, etc.) as well as publishing other formats, such as their PDF version and spiral-bound printed Study Guide version.
All so you can study (and enjoy) these classics to your heart's content.
I also owe you a blow-by-blow how-to on setting out on such an adventure on your own. Not for the faint-at-heart, nor those who dislike hands-on marketing your own books. (That might even wind up as an additional chapter for "Just Publish! Ebook Creation for Indie Authors." Ya gotta love how books can be revised and updated when you control your own publishing process...)
Just wanted to drop you a note about things - and let you know to get ready to start your studies.

Dickens' Tale Becomes First Fully Published Writers' Club Selection
Here's what's just came up for you. Yet another masterpiece for your study:
A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens
The novel depicts the plight of the French peasantry demoralized by the French aristocracy in the years leading up to the revolution, the corresponding brutality demonstrated by the revolutionaries toward the former aristocrats in the early years of the revolution, and many unflattering social parallels with life in London during the same time period. It follows the lives of several protagonists through these events. The most notable are Charles Darnay and Sydney Carton. Darnay is a former French aristocrat who falls victim to the indiscriminate wrath of the revolution despite his virtuous nature, and Carton is a dissipated English barrister who endeavors to redeem his ill-spent life out of his unrequited love for Darnay's wife...

It's begun - another publishing journey par excellance.
(Or - as Bill and Ted would say - "A Most Excellent Journey.")
Republishing classics isn't as easy as it sounds. And the howls I get sometimes when modern authors criticize all this editing I do in order to bring quality work to them - can get annoying.
However, much as the old bandage has to come off in order to treat the cut or scrape, so must one endure innocent barbed comments, lightly or brusquely thrown.
The point of this is to create a study-series where an author would only need to download copies of these books and learn from the all-time great writers of history. Like sitting at the feet of the masters...
