Some pointers.It is advisable to list your terms of sale in your product download instructions space. You must store your file with a reputable hosting company and the download url you enter must be entered accurately so the programme works first time every time. It is advised that you store your zip/folder file with us at the above hosting. Just cut and paste the download url into the download url part of your product description. You may also wish to add a small .txt or word file in your zip/folder file explaining clearly your sales terms and even your contact email.
Stories are better sold as PDF's for professionalism.
Story prices will depend on whether or not you are including copyright etc. A first time writer might be advised to sell their stories inclusive of copyright to be used at leisure, by any magazine or media that wishes both to buy and publish your story. As you get a name for yourself you might start to make restrictions to your stories etc such as royalties and publication. Your stories shold NOT be MICRO-fiction, and might be between 2000 and 20,000 words, anything less is hard to qualify with a price...!
