After a couple of days off to spend with my daughter and see my brand new niece (who is gorgeous) I was back to work yesterday. No actual writing done but I edited the new prologue again. I'll do another run at it after I've written this and print off a couple of copies for my proof readers who are coming round today anyway.
Once that was done I spent some time working out how to create EPUB, MOBI and PDF files from a Word DOCX. After a bit of digging I found a program called Calibre that made it very easy to do. The good news is that I can convert the file without a large amount of changes and that will save me a lot of time once it is ready for publication. I also came across a UK start up publisher called Huffier who wants to take on Amazon. Pretty ambitious but if I get on the ground floor it could help a lot to have my book in there where there is little competition.
The ITIN number to stop me having to pay the US 30% of my gross is not easy. I've now contacted two firms and neither even know which department I need to speak to. I have left messages but no one has come back to me yet. Oh well I'll keep trying.
