E-Publishing uses

One of the phrases that the media is throwing around a lot lately is e-publishing. A lot the reason for this is the battle that is going on right now between the electronic book readers and tablets. And regardless of where you stand in the battle of which is the best, we must all understand that the battle is really where you are going to spend your money on the books to read. This article isn't about that. It's about you creating and distributing your own e-pub books.

I'm not assuming that everyone out there reading this article is a fledgling author in search of a book deal. What I am saying is that all of us are communicators with a message that needs to be conveyed. Whether that message is a sermon, bible study, or a calendar of events. Why would you want to consider an e-book? The answer is simple...people need the information in a readily accessible format. So many people are carrying e-readers in tablet and smart-phone formats (and iPod Touches) that it only makes sense to maximize on that fact.

There are various ways to create e-pub documents, one of the easiest is Apple's Pages application. With its recent update, the program (on the Mac itself) can export any document as an e-pub. So why not use this great tool.
