    Are you talking about having troubles writing the book? Or are you having problems formatting it?

    I recommend using a simple writing style....write like you speak. Ebook buyers are seeking information and they don't need anything fancy. When I write my ebooks they are short reports of about 20 - 60 pages. So you don't have to make them long, either. Just make sure you have an outline of the points you want to cover and then write a bit about each point. Include an introduction and an ending - and in the ending make sure you put some affiliate links for backend products you'd like to sell, things related to your topic. You can make nice extra money with the affiliate links in the back.

    For formatting - most people prefer to read ebooks these days as pdf files. You don't need a compiler for that. You can either use Adobe to turn your word document into a pdf - and I also believe there are some free converters available online.

    There's a lot of money to be made selling ebooks - I've been surprised at the income coming in from the few I've published. Don't give up!
