Smashwords is a superb one-stop online publisher that easily converts a single Word document into almost all formats required to publish to other ebook publishers, including Apple, Kindle, ePub, PDF, Palm, RTF, and Sony. As such, Smashwords is extremely useful as a single repository for all your online publishing needs. No longer do you have to create accounts with other publishers; no longer do you need to learn separate software and publishing guides - just follow the guidelines supplied herein, and you're good to go. Those guidelines, however, can be long and tedious. In this book, I have streamlined them into one neat little book, with pictures and step-by-step instructions, taking you from creating an account to final publishing - and success!
