Publishing output from iBook Author?

I would preface by admitting that I'm not a writer. Nonetheless, I love to play with new toys so I downloaded Apple's iBook Author software a couple weeks ago and started playing with it.

And now, much to my surprise, I have what I would describe as a coffee table picture book almost finished and it's pretty good. Everyone I've shown it to likes it and more importantly, I like it (and I'm a tough audience).

Even though it's not ready for prime-time yet, it will be soon and I want to put it on Apple's iBookstore when that time comes and charge a couple bucks for it. A few days ago I thought it would be as simple as clicking the Publish button in the software, but a couple hours reading last night disabused me of that notion.

If this was an ordinary book in an established format, my path would be fairly clear. Send a Word .doc to Smashwords or use one of the other aggregators. But this is a new format and none that I saw last night talk about it on their sites.

So I'm asking here for advice on how to get my book published. Any specific info or pointers where to look would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
