e-Book Publishing DIY: The Do It Yourself Guide to Publishing e-Books

This guide is for people want to publish their non-fiction 'how-to' manual or compelling story as an e-book (and optionally a paperback book) at little or no cost, yet offer it for sale via online bookstores just like the big publishers do. "e-Book Publishing DIY" is aimed at Joe Public who wants to 'get the job done' without getting bogged down in the nuts-and-bolts details of e-book file formats. While the approach outlined here is primarily targeted at producing e-books in PDF, Amazon Kindle, and EPUB formats, in the final chapter I show how you can further leverage your e-book investment by publishing it in traditional paperback format... at little extra cost. Contains information on free-to-use on-line tools including Adobe Buzzword, the Microsoft Word Web App, Google Docs, Lulu.com, CreateSpace, and PayPal.
