Markdown Book/EBook Template

Template for creating books (paperback and ebook) from Markdown files.

This project contains a template for creating a book (paperback and eBook) from Markdown sources. It also supports the use of a "book journal", something I use when I'm plotting out a book. I got this idea from an article published in Writing Mysteries. You can see a few examples of a book journal here

IMPORTANT NOTE: This project recently underwent major changes. Updates to the documentation are coming soon. In the meantime, if you want to try using this, you'll want to look at what the _resources/scripts/newbook.py script does and do that manually.
