Is my book properly edited, & if not what happens

[m468959]

I don't know if anyone has no trouble getting directions but I have none. I posted
a question once before and got some helpful answers at Smashwords forums. Then
I was accepted into the Premium Catalog. I also got a tip from Smashwords customer
service to buy a book on formatting with OpenOffice. I then realized I had already
been accepted into the Smashwords Premium Catalog. The point is I found out my
book does not have a separate copyright page and title page as specified in Smashwords
Guidelines in the Openoffice book. I feel I may have been accepted outside
of Smashwords rules, and that's why I have made no sales? My book somehow looks as
if it is dead, despite being in the Smashwords Premium Catalog.

Please can people comment.

Thanks,
Mohini

Provide a link to your book on Smashwords so members can look at the sample pages.

Thank you

My books sample's link to read it online is

www.smashwords.com/extreader/read/342449/1/sex-manual-for-physicists-a-conceptual-guide-and-system-tour

It seems to have poor layout and page breaks-please tell me if you agree


The link to download a sample is www.smashwords.com/books/view/342449
which seems to work in epub and mobi formats


Honestly what do you think?

Thanks very much,

You should look at sample pages from other authors to see how they layout/format their copyright page and how they flow their words on the pages.

Here are some example front matter (copyright, author, etc.) from the Smashwords FAQ's. Follow these examples for a proper front matter:

Book Title

FirstName LastName

Copyright 2010 by FirstName LastName

Smashwords Edition

Or, this is a good short one too

Book Title

FirstName LastName

Copyright FirstName LastName 2010

Published at Smashwords

Or, if you're a publisher, this is a good one
