I made a book! Sort of. Actually, it’s an e-book, or iBook.
Yes, in times when I could have been a tad more productive, but no one was really paying any attention, I made a book.
Introducing the debut issue of e{pulp}, which suggests there might be an issue 2, who knows?
But it was fun and I thought I would give it a go.
It is a really little e-book, only 12 pages, almost an e-zine, in a format not entirely suited to the genre.
The format is not well suited to images and is actually best suited to novels with reams of text. So I have taken this a bit out of the square so excuse the sometime odd page breaks and somewhat messy formatting. Each device or computer will render the book differently based on it’s size and the user-defined font size.
Download the first issue of e{pulp} for iPad/iPhone here
It is best viewed on an iPad or an iPhone ~ you just need the free iBooks app to view it.
Once you download the ZIP file, unzip it and you’ll have a short readme.txt file and the epulp_issue1.epub file. Open iTunes 9.1 and higher and simply drag the ePUB into the Library area of iTunes on the left side. It should now appear in the Books Area of iTunes and once you plug in your device, you can select it as a book to sync in the Books Tab in iTunes.
But never fear, if you don’t have an iPhone or iPad, you can read it on Adobe’s free computer application Digital Editions.
I’ve also made a PDF version and a Kindle {it’s black and white} version.
What can I say? I can’t walk away from anything new and shiny, and I’m excited by the possibilities this idea could turn in to.
I would love to hear what you think.
