Hello - i'm new
Hello MobileReaders
 I've been a programmer for a very long time but have recently switched to writing. I've published a book on Dog Walking (in print) but recently wrote a novel as an e-book. It wasn't straighforward converting the word doc to the kindle format. Despite my programming and web building knowledge it still took a lot of time. In the end I used MobiPocket Creator and EditPad (a notepad kind of text editor) and got the result I was after. Now i'm aiming to convert to other formats to get the book onto other platforms. As my name suggests - I've a vegetable growing habit too  Look forward to meeting you all
