The Company

Booknook.biz is all about the books.

Ebooks for every shape and size of reader.  First-time authors, published writers, people with rights-reverted books. 

We craft ebooks for both .mobi format (Kindle) and .epub format (Nook, iPad, Sony e-reader, Kobo and virtually every smartphone reading software platform).  Every client—except when requested otherwise—receives two files, one of each format, to facilitate the writer’s or publisher’s ability to disseminate the book widely and utilize different selling platforms for promotional opportunities.

Kimberly A Hitchens

Owner, Booknook.biz

An avid reader for a lifetime, I got into this business by accident.  A random Christmas gift of a Kindle to my husband—which he didn’t use—gave me the opportunity to start downloading public domain books from Project Gutenberg, a worthwhile enterprise if ever there was one.  (I donate time at Distributed Proofreaders, and if you treasure the Classics, you should too).  Dissatisfied with the formatting of the publicly-available texts, I started reformatting the books with the help of MobiPocket Creator, a program for making .prc files that was acquired by Amazon in the early ebook days. 

Then a local Book Shepherd, Penny Callmeyer, got me involved with creating a Kindle-compatible file for one of her clients, Charles Irion, for Irion Publishing. 

And, as they say, that’s how the legend started.

All kidding aside:  we do great books at reasonable prices.  We have good relationships with Amazon and with Apple, amongst others.  We won’t hose you, there are no hidden fees, no long waits.  We can find you cover designers and if needed, proofreaders.  We have a solid list of authors. 

So send us your book.  .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).  You won’t regret it.

Rick is one of our main “go-to” guys, particularly for tough books.  His attention to detail is second to none, and he’s particularly good with books that require extensive footnoting, appendices, and the like.
