Yes. Several of my eBooks have made it to their third edition, and many have had one or more minor revisions along the way even if they haven't been updated to a full new edition.
What's the difference between a revision and a new edition?
- A new edition means I've added substantial new material or made substantive changes to what's in the book. This is often because of a significant firmware update or an additional model change. New editions are identified by the first number in the version ID: 3.00 would be third edition.
- A revision generally only corrects errors or rewords passages people found confusing. Identified by the second number in the version ID: 3.01 would be the second revision of the third edition.
With all electronic distribution for books bought in 2022 or later (after I made a price adjustment), my policy on updating is this:
- I provide all updates for free, even though I incur costs to do so (email and bandwidth charges, the reason for my pricing change in 2022). Automated emails are sent from my server to the email of all purchasers on record when an update is available, with links to download the new version. Note that since these emails come from an automated server, they might end up in your Spam or Junk folder in some mail systems.
