"They agreed to go in the vela and they're already pissed but that always happens with new things. So how'd you get paid the first three episodes of your cereal. Cereal are free to readers. And then after that the way people purchase their new episodes after the first three that are free to the reader. So you really have to hope those readers in the first three episodes with that's kind of normal with a bookie by chapter three. You really want your reader hunt. So they have Use tokens to purchase the next episode. In this is where a lot of authors are getting upset because when you sign up for kindle villa. They're automatically giving you two hundred free tokens and if those readers use. Those free tokens. You're not getting paid for them. So this is one of the things that a lot of major corporations do especially with the new service. Thank you if they try to give as much they try to hook you into the new service so i think some authors are like well. I signed up. I know not getting paid for this. Because if people are using free tokens and that's not fair and ice either point but i think it was also in terms of service which we all know. The terms of service of everything is very convoluted and hard to read so there is some confusion about that in. There's some frustration but it gets a little trickier again because this is you know. This is the way of the world. Everything has catches so readers by token since so you can get like and by unlike packages. So for instance if you buy. Two hundred tokens is trudeau.

"But we're not sure quite how to do that yet because we have to learn what was the fuck is can develop her before i can start including it so in my second reason. Actually for a researching can delay is a miranda macleod are considering going into kindle velit and i'll get into reasons why as i go through what fuck is can develop. Should i be the title. Yes all right. So if you are wondering what kendall is right now. It is live for us authors. Only what is this new program in. I don't know if you guys can read the kindle villa episodes outside of the us but what it is. It's a new program. It's obviously via an amazon in authors are able to upload like hearts of stories so you can upload chapters you can upload episodes on a regular basis and the key to be obviously being successful with kim storytelling have to be consistent so you can't drop an episode on week one and then week sixteen be like. Oh here's episode to a smaller. I think there. I i can't remember the actual word count. But they're they're smaller slices in. This goes back to the whole thinking that a lot of the industry experts can't remember how many times i've heard like especially the indie writers being like smaller is going to become the new thing. I have noticed that yet but obviously amazon is is listening to this in it. So it's similar to like walk. Had in radish where you can read episodes of stories on your phone site okay. Yeah i've heard this many times in the past and is never come true so it'll be interesting to see if this does lead anywhere you may be coming to this point but are they. Encouraging original serialised stories. Are they saying you can take a bully. What he'd done in chop it up. Hold your horse about your house with the coffee pot okay. That's one of the things. So what before. We get to that or questions. You may have a like unclear mentioned. It is if you wanna find out more about like actually on your dashboard. Where is the kindle villa button. It's on the talk above where it says e books and everything you'll see a it says villa were. You can click in there. But what can you put on kindle villa. You're like one question ahead of me. God it has to be an original work so if you already have a book published you can't break it up and put it on kindle so no you can't do that it has to be exclusive but there's a catch to this exclusively so this means for thirty days after an episode goes live at has to be exclusive to.

"To that that's fine. I live in perpetual disappointment of greg. Thank you greg. Thank you greg. No we love your email. Thank you and keep on coming. I also wanna mentioned a couple of things.

My case online at amazon this product. Well i i see this. Why but. I think this might help us in this way. Because the thing. I've often wanted in audiobooks as some kind of episodic version of inaudible sean you get these audiobooks like sixteen hours long and you thinking time for that exactly right there a time suck they kill you and trouble is a really good book. Can't stop listening to another chapter another chapter. And before you know a bit like binging on netflix. You can't stop yourself but it's not presented in that way so if you fall asleep ice. I still think to this day. If amazon has the capability to do this. I'm sure they do. Issued have a snort detection function in the amazon echo that when takes the snoring at pauses the book and maybe knocks by to the star of that job to that would be brilliant. But until that happens. They've come up with mobile. First reading expedients for cd realized. Stories is called kindle valla. I wanted to mention it. At kindle. villa towards kindle valve ee aa. The studies are offered in short six hundred to five thousand watt episodes that can be purchased one time. The first three episodes very story free amazon of told us in a press. Release adding the redes- then by additional episodes tokens via the kindle app or from amazon's site. Now assuming if this is what i think is this means it will not be available in a while it will be available in audio. I guess we can listen to. Obviously you know what we want but it won't be raids. I'm guessing in the way the audible books are. It'll be in thread with name. What do they call it. Whisper read yeah. We can listen to it through text to speech.

Just sometimes i talk to many shows are just talked too much in general look sticker. Lots to talk about on the show this week. We are going to be joined by a very special guest. Mark is bringing his friends to the show. We're going to be finding out all about some fantastic features of windows. Three six five. You might have had some news about this week. He brand new savage from microsoft. They will bring windows to your browser details coming home. This is double tap canada. We'll be back in a moment. Double tappers wanna get involved. Call this show now at one. Eight four four nine seven one one nine nine nine or email feedback at dot ca and have your say. This is double tap canada. It's a show on his sexual honest guys. We always do this just before. A guest comes on which embarrassing mark. Why do we do. You know your but will blame you anyway. You have your friend with you this week. I wish i did. It was bringing. It was bring when okay. Here's the story guys last week. We talked about We're actually we didn't talk about it because it was announced right after the show that microsoft had made this really cool announcement of a new service called windows. Three sixty five. Which is i. You know what i'm not going to explain this guy's because my my bring a friend is jason bromate headed modern work and security at microsoft candidate. Jason thanks for joining us. People on the show may recognize you from townhall that we did On double tap. Tv thank you for agreeing to Field my my mom barrage of questions here. Because i'm really excited about this announcement. But can you recap what this service and who was meant for. Yeah absolutely in great to be here again. Always a pleasure to see the team so really exciting announcement as you mentioned that. We made earlier this week for windows. Three sixty five which we really do view is what. I'll call the world's first cloud pc and it's often referred to as a windows in the cloud way to think about it which is windows. Three sixty five is really set up to say securely stream your personalized windows desktop apps settings and content from the cloud to any device. And i'll give you two perspectives which is in given the pandemic and what we've had to live through for the last fifteen months. Are we know so. Many companies small and large literally had to send their people home overnights and in many cases. Those organizations weren't set up to do so we actually share it as part of the launch announced earlier. This week at work. We've been doing with the government to nunavut here in canada as part of our preview and if you think about just the distribution of the geography that of it has the idea of being able to ship. A pc to an employee of the government's is at three or four week exercise just by virtue of logistics in many cases. They don't have roads and so accessibility is about flights. And so think about an individual city in a remote location actually being able to boot an existing piece of hardware and having their organization to stream windows directly to them and so we think this is an amazing opportunity. Certainly say key scenarios like hybrid work disaster recovery but we think frankly it's the smallest small businesses with an employee of one all the way through large enterprises who are really trying to rethink what i'll call hybrid strategy and really delivering a great experience.

"Tip final tip when you're considering katie piece elect and kindle villa. What your value is. How much do you feel you bring the table. And how much do you think you should be compensated for that. If you're just looking for an avenue to just publish 'cause you love the craft of writing this might be for you but if you're the type of person that doesn't really want to grind it out for say twenty five cents for every purchase or twenty two cents There's also the risk versus reward because katie p select is a proven commodity. Many people have made a lucrative living going to kdp select and some continue to do that whereas some people don't even katie piece left at all they just do it on their own and the wide but we know the proven we. It's all about the devil you know. And so with kindle vela. They're really the devil. We don't know just yet so be very careful. It's going to be about risk versus reward. Because you're probably going to have to write about three plus episodes. Get that all queued up before launches so that way you can have people reading and binging your content and you can keep up with that demand Really there's not too much of a risk if you ask me because you're only out a time. Let's say you took all the time to write. You got it edited you gotta proof-read you got it formatted you gotta cover for and such like that. Let's just say for instance you find. Kim avella doesn't work out for you. All right on. Enroll it from kindle villa and move it over to katie pete and trout katie piece select or maybe even publish it. Why there's so many options you can do here. It's really no negative in my opinion. Hey folks do me a favor subscriber.
