It may be the death of me, though, or it will necessitate more frequent hair coloring sessions as my grey hairs explode in number.It's really not that bad, actually, it's just that an ebook has its own set of rules that are so completely different from a hard copy book.
For instance, setting up pages. I thought that I had to create actual pages, as in a printed book, so there I was going into print preview every time that I added text to see if the text began and ended where it was supposed to on the "page" - the page that doesn't even exist as I have now learned. Each chapter in an ebook is a run-on document, which makes the set-up easier in some respects - now that I know that!!
Anyway, stay posted for more stuff about ebooks.

I'm working on a short e-book myself. As the author of two self-published books (one offset, one POD) I know all about the general format for printed books although I've always had a typesetter or book designer do the actual work. But I know nothing about e-books. Where would one find templates or instructions on how to set up? Do you need a designed cover?
