I don't do a lot of epubs so my experience level is lower than most here, but I've been trying to work out the simplest quickest way of doing every simple epubs (reflowable, no links or fancy formatting etc). I used to mark up with a html editor first but I've found starting from a .txt is pretty nice with Sigil because all the paragraphs are already marked in. Sigil puts in <p>s for what it sees as blank lines but I can remove them all in one go with a find and replace and that only leaves me changing heading and putting in microscopic css in the header. Of course this wouldn't work for anything more complicated but starting from scratch in Sigil works for very basic epubs.
