Progress report

Some time was found today, so I finished editing Book 1! Huzzah!

In general I think it’s pretty good—there’s a big scene I think needs to be slowed down and given more importance, but the whole is all right.

I swear I put this on my calendar

Tribulations fell out of Prime exclusivity earlier this month, and it took me a week to realize it! Whoops!

Anyway, I’m putting it onto Smashwords now. That’s become a little different. If you don’t know, Smashwords typically wants you to upload a DOC file, which they will convert into all formats—BUT if you’re compulsive like me, you can upload the EPUB file separately, just so you feel like it’s OK.

I’ve always done that, making the EPUB file in Calibre without any problems. But now (and this wasn’t a problem a few months ago), they won’t take the Calibre-generated EPUB files—they claim there are a massive slew of problems.

I guess somebody upgraded somewhere? I have no idea, and this is well beyond my technical abilities. So I’m ditching Calibre and just uploading a DOC into Smashwords—fingers crossed that the EPUBs they generate are decent!

ETA: Smashwords e-book here!
