Ronald E. Newton

Ronald E. Newton I spent eight years with the USAF Security Service serving overseas. Military intelligence is not an oxymoron. Worked several years as a medicare claims examiner for the state of New Jersey. Finally found a job I liked. Meaning I love to work my job. After 32 years retired from IBM as a networking consultant. It was an eye opener to work in the back rooms of corporate America. Some where in the journey I married a southern belle and moved to the south. Two sons and daughter entered my family and all of them have left home to be on their own. They still come back though. After receiving helping hands in my career, I taught for free, the SAT in Greensboro, NC for 25 years. Every college graduate was a satisfying victory for me and my students. The lesson learned there was don't teach---Mentor! Became immersed in a new network called the Internet. Imagine PCs instead of water cooled main frames. Worked to launch free blogs at triadblogs.com. Developed mentoring site for SAT, GED and Personal Finances. I have a personal blog at www.rnewton.net/wordpress/ and an author's website at www.rnewton.net. You may email me or get links to my mentoring sites from my author's website. Please drop by and kick the tires. I was first published in Negro Digest in 1964. My how the years have flown. Why should you give a book review?

    Introduction Section

    All the ideas and knowledge expressed in this book did not necessarily come from the author. Years of creating eBooks, Internet research, and helpful mentors gave assistance and help to the writer. What worked helped to build the author’s book’s creation.

    To become an eBook creator, that artisan needed good tools for the job. Over the years, a toolbox filled with eBook creation tools. Into the toolbox HTML, CSS, word processors, and book parts tools accumulated. Experience taught the author what worked. Pain, stress, and frustration are not eBook building tools. The ePub archive became an eBook architect. Skilled tradesmen HTML & CSS built this eBook.

    Word never did all that the author wanted it to do in creating eBooks. If it would use the ePub standards and HTML plus CSS, this writer would be happier. Word does a good job of allowing the writer to put words to paper. Day by day, the author flushes out a manuscript’s outline and follows it. As expected, the book’s author wrote finally the content.

    After proofreading and editing, it is time to begin the Word to Notepad++ to ePub to Kindlegen work flow plan. How to do those four processes determined this book’s content. For this author the work flow is not emotionally charged. Some parts are dull while others are fun. From the beginning, the writer is confident an eBook can from this production plan.

    A man with only one tool in his toolbox will probably try to use it for every project instead of using it where best suited. This writer proudly announces he has a multi–tool toolbox in his possession. You can have one also.

    How you can self–publish an eBook (which is a Mobi) for Amazon Kindle or an eBook (which is an ePub) with open standards. Kindle is not the only hardware/software eBook reader in the market place, but it appears to be the most popular one.

    Some eBook readers are:

    Kindle

    IPad

    Sony

    Kobo

    Nook

    You can produce a quality eBook with free or low cost tools. First, finish writing a book manuscript for your eBook. Who will publish your writings in book form? The choice is you or someone else.

    Why would you want to self–publish?

    You have no money to hire experts or freelancers. You want ultimate control of your EBook. It is your child (smile).

    If you chose to self–publish, this is the book for you. As an author, this is an old journey you are about to begin. You will have an advantage over the author. You will benefit from this author’s mistakes in publishing. A road map showing what to do as well as what to avoid waits for the writer.

    Together we will learn about Word, Notepad ++, and ePub standards. What these elements provide a writer. How a writer may use them. The best practices for governing and controlling them.

    These five sections comprise this book’s contents.
