The Abbi Agency recently launched their first ever eBook (hopefully there will be many more to come!). It was the first eBook I’d ever done. I’ve made books for print so I figured, how different could a web version be? The answer is much different.

Let me just preface this by saying I love technology. I am always trying to stay up on the latest trends in the tech world. But, I’ve noticed with the growing options technology provides for us, we tend to get lazy and, frankly, sloppy with the way we treat people electronically.
