Hello from a newbie, and would-be self-publisher
Hi, Everyone,
I'm just a Boston-based newbie saying hello. I'm also a self-publisher. So far, I'm just doing pdfs but I'd love to do kindle and epub/ibookstore. I'm hoping that I can learn here how to to produce mobi and epub books and post them to places like the kindle bookstore and lulu. Anyone have any experience doing that? so far, I'm having a devil of a time trying to produce an epub file (I'm using Calibre) that lulu will accept. cheers mjt Last edited by mtucker57; 06-25-2011 at 08:37 AM. |

You've already started to find you way around ....
May I offer you a warm welcome to Mobileread Forums. Have a browse around, you may have already discovered the Main Forum is laid out in a logical manner. Everyone’s friendly, if you need any help, do ask around. Members with Green names are the hard-working Moderators…(they don’t bite, just keep the rest of us safe.) If you want a non-technical chat or three, pop into the Lounge . check out our Wiki for other information .... Please join in and enjoy your stay ..... After about a week, and at least 10 posts, you’ll be able to add a signature - now wouldn’t that be worth waiting for? (although check the guidelines). |
