Busy busy with editing Bad Hunting
and getting ready to write another Estelend novel, and oh yeah
Christmas and stuff, but I wanted to take a minute to link to this very
useful post on Indies Unlimited: Calibre for Readers, part 1. Calibre
is a free ebook management program, which a lot of authors use for
doing ebook conversions. It's also designed as an ebook library, where
you can list all the ebooks on your computer, group them by authors,
series, and tags, transfer them on and off of your ereader, and other
cool stuff. If you buy ebooks from a variety of stores such as Amazon
and allRomance and Smashwords, it's a great way to aggregate them all in
one place. If the book doesn't have DRM, Calibre can also be used to
convert ebooks from one format to another (for example, if you find
yourself with a book in Kindle format and want to convert it for your
Nook).You can also use it to convert personal documents in various formats, such as DOCX, PDF, RTF, and TXT, into an ebook file for easy reading on your ereader. I've done this with fanfictions I've written, just for fun :)
Anyway, Calibre is a very cool and useful program, and it's free (though they welcome donations), so check out the blog post for more information!
