I've got a couple of questions on this though.
1. Is this a good choice as the originating file format or is there a better one?
2. Would it be better to have one HTML file with everything in it or split it up into multiple file, one for each chapter or section?
Any help would be great.
Thanks.

1. It is quite a good choice, really
2. Keep it in one file or put it in a folder (name the folder according to the book title) and zip the folder up to archive
3 Do NOT imitate Baen on this as their html explodes all over the place when unpacking
Better yet, use epub for this!
Oh and welcome to MR.
