Small Things, and a Big Thing
The first commercial publication from Nantucket E-Books will be released this weekend. It’s called Small Things: The Poetry of Allie Flint, and it collects the works of Allie Flint, poet laureate of Lafayette, Colorado.
Customers have been able to place orders to have their name listed in the e-book as a customer, and order comb-bound paperback copies with their name in it. The e-book will be published on this site, for free, tomorrow, February 12th, and I will start delivering physical copies.
I have been experimenting with building physical copies of books from Shanty™ markup files since last year. I won’t go into all of it, but the software I have developed makes it fairly easy to convert any e-book on the site into a comb-bound paperback. Here’s some of the copies going out tomorrow:
I have learned a lot from this campaign, and I hope to share some of what I learned in a future blog post.
