hipiers.com does not send out spam emails, or it should not since the
owner of the domain is against spam as much as we are.
I do not know anything about Scrivener or its web site.
Did you do a Google or Amazon search for "writer info", a book search,
or some other one that might make you think you are a writer of some
type of book or manual? If you did, you may have triggered a
advertisement from Amazon.
When I look at my weather site, it displays advertisement based on my
searches on Amazon, Google, and even Tigerdirect.com [computer and
electronics web store].
Of course, you could always use the "Private Window" option in Mozilla
Firefox to reduce your web footprint and not give, the web sites you
visit, your info that is stored in your bowser, such as email address
and other things you do not want given out. Every browser I know of has
personal information stored in it. The trick is to make your browser
not have this info available to the sites you visit. Firefox has the
"private window" option. [File > New Private Window].

Two days ago, I downloaded Scrivener. Yesterday, I clicked on the
"hipiers" link suggested below.
Today, I receive an email from Amazon suggesting I buy the book,
"Writers Tune-up Manual."

You may be right if the project goes to a professional publisher for
final output. But, Pablo's original question stated he would be
creating a "self published, free ebook." Pablo is apparently looking
for a solution that *avoids* the need to present his book to a
professional publisher.

The poster might want to look at this page.
http://www.hipiers.com/publishing.html
In the list, there is information about some publishers and services,
with some references to e-book self publishing. IT might be worth a
look.
If the poster wants to make money on a self-published e-book, then there
may be some good information there to guide through the process.
