One of my fears has been Fear of Formatting - I was intimidated by the requirements of formatting a book in order to self-publish, and of the demands of creating a cover.<br /><br />Fortunately, Karen Cioffi published her ebook on making covers recently, and I jumped on it. <br /><br />As to the formatting, I gritted my teeth, as I had a chapbook of poetry I needed to Margaret Fielandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12639464925210908450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6411231637771693377.post-20815940421759005712012-06-28T20:41:24.275-04:002012-06-28T20:41:24.275-04:00Hi Shirley, I can imagine how you must be feeling!...Hi Shirley, I can imagine how you must be feeling!

I'm trying hard to believe my book that comes out in October, in time for Breast Cancer month, will be acceptable.
