Need a re-release formatted? Have a new book you want to self-publish, but just don't quite know how to prep your book files? We use Vellum for the Mac, and do formatting for ePub (all formats) and pdf/print.

January can be a quiet month for new releases, but this year we have a smorgasbord of new fiction in paperback & hardback to tickle your book-browsing fancy, from Alexander McCall Smith and Kim SHerwood to Louise Welsh, Ali Millar and Hannah Kaner.

It’s nice to see reprinted with foil and embossing. I’m a sucker for a paperback 🤩

Should I be ok with just Kindle books?

I really prefer books I can touch, paper bacm is fine...
But, I have a problem with space and finding paperback copies.

What to do?? 🤔🤔

readers & writers, I need your input on novels with large character casts & multi-nation worlds!

I. Do you prefer:

  1. a list of characters & their sheer basics at the front of the book
    OR

  2. the same list at the back of the book?

  3. a list of all named characters, both on-screen and -off
    OR

  4. only the main and most important side characters?

@courtcan@mastodon.social avatar

II. Do you prefer:

  1. character list
  2. glossary
  3. maps
  4. currencies & measurements
  5. all of above
  6. some of above (explain below!)
  7. other stuff (explain below!)
    ?

Repost this and previous PLS!

from the lovely people at Valancourt who truly do the world a service by reprinting some fabulous & sometimes long OOP books.
These are the two newest from Thomas Tessier, FINISHING TOUCHES & RAPTURE and they look fantastic. Should be able to get to them in November (hopefully, haaaa) but for now they look right at home amongst my other and PFH.
