Blurb: Chapbook Creation Process Two

 After finalising the final chapter I went back to Blurb and began by adding the blurb to the back cover. I clicked on the back cover dragged a photo in filled the cover and then moved the image into place, I added a text container and again changed the font to Century Scholbook 16pts and added the text.




I then began adding the final chapter.  Using the same method as previously adding text and photo containers and ensuring all text was consistent.



I then added an About the Author page and picture credits to ensure that all artists are credited, all images came from unsplash apart from the author image.


I then began the publishing process - I proofread and spellchecked everything several times and had to add some pages for publishing purposes.  I then uploaded it from Bookwright to Blurb.


This takes some time so I left it to render ...

After this, I went on to 'sell the book' on Blurb and completed the details 


I then went onto the pricing and how the book would be displayed and completed the details and saved these so that it would be publicly available on Blurb.



I completed this then I noticed a mistake on the subtitle as it had taken the subtitle from my previous book and used this here - this meant I had to re-upload and start this again to remove this as it was uneditable.  I completed this and then I could buy a copy and set it up for sale and download the pdf version.

I can now also embed the book on the website and thsi can be seen in full as a flipbook.
