The purpose of this one is simple. Most likely everyone here knows I run Fae Corps Publishing and I have been doing this in the background for a while now. I plan on talking clearly about the tools I use for publishing, and the way that each one works. Demystifying what I do. Is that to say that I will be making my own self unnecessary? No, because my experience is valuable. I just feel like so much of the process is made out to be harder than it needs to be.

Let’s continue the talk about the files.

All books have multiple files that go into the making and marketing of them.

Today I want to discuss the main document. By the end of the publication process you will have a pdf that will be with the covers  – for ARC (Also an Epub in the same situation). You will have a doc file (or an odt depending on the office program you use.) And then you will have both the pdf and epub without the cover attached.

The reason why you don’t want to attach the cover to the main file is that the site will add the cover to the book inside as well if you attach it. However, ARC copies are sent directly to the reader and often need the cover.

I will leave on the bottom of the post the upcoming calendar. I feel like that will help. As You can see this changes slightly each week. Things get adjusted because Authors are not ready or I get a book that I had promised space.

If I don’t get the book from them I will just have an empty spot for the day. But I think that they are worth it.)
