Thanks eschwartz. I just read about all these weird hyphenation issues with Calibre (eg. mothe-r) at the ends of lines, and so I'm wanting to stay with Sigil. But am I okay starting with .odt, then say doing the Writer2Epub then to Sigil? I just need a process that works for me (with no booby traps that show up in ereaders once the book is out there).
