    Two (2) comments. 1. You forgot to mention the freeware ebook reader / device Calibre. The latest version of Calibre will convert a doc.x file with tables and a table of contents (made to Smashwords specifications) to a beautiful epub in a flash. (2) In addition to a monthly cover contest I think you need a monthly contest for Facebook boost post advertising images. Addendum: GIMP is the best tool to crop and scale the background images you download from Pixabay. Inkscape is the best tool (both freeware) to letter your images. Best of all it’s easy to meet the Facebook 20% text rule on images with Inkscape. Because Inkscape has guidelies under File -> Document Properties -> Guides.

Why?
"Writers change the world one reader at a time. But you can't change the world with a book that's still on your hard drive or in a box under your bed. This blog exists to help you get that book into people's hands."
