There is definitely a story here. Charlie Brown perhaps?

The next step in the mechanics of the process is typesetting and formatting for ebooks and print books. I tried a variety of approaches for the process. I tried Joel Friedlander’s Book Design Templates which is pretty cool. He’s got a lot of good information and the instructional video on formatting the book is great.

But then you have to go through another step using something like Calibre to convert it into Mobi or Epub, and I could never make that work cleanly.

This time I found Vellum https://vellum.pub/ . This thing is more expensive than most, but it works great. It makes a beautifully formatted book for both print and electronic publishing. It’s not a place to do a lot of editing. You need to be down to your final step for the most part. You need to review it to make sure you have everything in the right places before you pull the trigger, but the final result looks professional.

In my particular genre, I am inundated with information about air quality in homes so I want to say a bit about that here not because it directly related to Self-publishing, but because it is directly related to health in homes which is an important issue right now.
