iBooks Author Is the Most Interesting Apple Software You Aren’t Using | TIME

For those interested in self-publishing, the article on iBooks Author captures the ease of use and advantages. I used it for Living with Cancer: A Journey and the formatting and visual possibilities were so much better than writing it on Pages or Word.

But given that it doesn’t have footnote capabilities, I couldn’t use it for Policy Arrogance or Innocent Bias: Resetting Citizenship and Multiculturalism.

Ultimately, the proposition Apple is offering–powerful and elegant free authoring software, plus a way to get the things you create with it in front of vast numbers of people–seems like a reasonable deal to me. The next time I have an idea that feels like it might be a book, I may well decide to turn it into an iBook.
