Kindle Once Again - this time for Walk, Hike, Saunter
Last time I did this was Dec 2017. At the moment, memory of how to do it is pretty foggy, but luckily I have my earlier blog posts on this to refresh my memory so printing them out to review. (look for Kindle label in this blog to find). This book is a little easier than the others - text and inline photos, a table of contents, but no index. Susan has promised it will be out in two and a half weeks, so will try to do that. My immediate issue is that I remember that I have to make some changes to the Indesign file before putting out the epub file that I will update for Kindle, but don't remember quite what they were.

Yes, some of us are infinitely lucky...
Blessings.

ReplyDeleteI have friends who think universal health care is the end of the U.S. As someone without insurance it seems like it could actually be an improvement for me.

People had to look around and learn that from the world around them, learn to survive and prosper by watching other living things do it. I always liked that idea.
