Jackie Collins enters digital self-publishing


Jackie Collins is going into self-publishing, with plans to release an e-book version of The Bitch, "a complete rewrite of her previous version of the novel", in the US.
Collins is published by Macmillan in the US, and Simon & Schuster in the UK. S&S has already published the new version of The Bitch as an e-book in the UK.
According to US site GalleyCat, Collins wanted to experiment with the format "just to be innovative and as a gift for my fans. It's a total experiment. It might sell two copies or it might sell 200,000. Who knows?".
She added: "If it does well, I probably will continue to e-publish, because I have a book of short stories and my publisher says short stories don't sell."
S&S released Collins' backlist in digital format at the end of January.
