What does an epub give you before upload that the docx does not?
After spending too much money trying to find an audience, I have resigned myself to a passive marketing approach. I use D2D, and I like the idea of Fourthwall.
My latest effort is eligible to go wide next week. I started the process of creating the ePub to load into Fourthwall. However, the tools I use create formatting issues with the content flow.
I have the skills necessary to edit an epub file. However, I don't want to spend time tweaking a file produced by a tool that should understand a font change, erroneously inserts blank lines, or removes blank lines intended for readability.
Money isn't the single motivator. Beta readers and editors of the latest work stated (paraphrased): "This is your best work. Your writing is so much easier to read. Damn it, where's book two?"
TLDR: I'm lazy, and I want to create a better product to market outside of 'Zon.
