Plain Text to ePub: How to Panic Less about eBook Formats

Hi folks. Today I wrote my outline for a talk I hope to give at a writers' convention coming up this fall. The outline came out as a series of questions, so I decided to answer them all and put the write-up on my blog.

If you are new to ebook formats, this post might help you to decipher some of the basics of publishing for digital media. Good luck!

Plain Text to ePub: How to Panic Less about eBook Formats

Here's the synopsis:
Quote:
While much of the world has moved to digital media, many writing tools
still encourage us to write in ways more suited to print media. In this
presentation, Case Talbot, a Smashwords engineer, will present an
introduction to understanding the nuts and bolts of how digital media
formats such as PDF and ePub really work. With this knowledge, authors
will be empowered to make informed decisions about their writing flow
that will save them time (and sanity) while granting readers a better
experience than ever.
