This short book outlines the basic process I use when I am writing and publishing a new book. I use a combination of Markdown and conversion with Pandoc to create the files I need to publish on any platform I want to.

If you have just started writing a book and you know what you are writing but you don't know what software you should be using, this is a great book for you. There are other books that cover Markdown in more detail, but this book covers how to include headings, italics, bold, links, images, and how to convert your file into other formats using Pandoc. From there, it is possible to publish what you have written as a book or a website.

I made this book for my friends who know I have published many books but have questions about the process. It is easier than you might think but a book like this was not available back when I got started nor did I know what Markdown was back then. I could have saved so much time using Markdown to define my Chapters and other elements of my book. My hope is that this book will also save you time as you adapt my methods to what works for you.
