Thank you for that Geoff.
I would urge anyone to use the good offices of either ISSUU or Calameo you can have a book put on there easily, it's free and anyone may read all that you put on, there is no limit to how many you can keep there. I'd advise anyone using it not to put on just an incomplete one to advertise the book. It puts people off. If they want a copy they will pay for it, many us don't like reading a whole book on line. If you have a paper copy it's yours and you can pick it up to read whenever it suits you.

Thanks, Geoff. I rather suspected that it wouldn’t have been (close to) fortnightly!

bimonthly

Every two months. I hate ambiguity too!

Twice every month, or once every two months?

Hi John,

I have only used PagePlus once to produce a true book. I did not use BookPlus, just did it as a single publication, but the cover was separate. It's Toubab: An American Doctor in West Africa Paperback – January 1, 2008
by D.O. David Z. Levine (Author). Available from Amazon. All profits for David's charity organization in West Africa. I did the second edition for him.

I mostly used PagePlus for a bimonthly magazine of 32pp.

Your books are amazing! You are very talented!

Is anyone else into using PagePlus for book publishing? Maybe they could show us some of their projects.
You can see some of mine by visiting this URL and double clicking on the cover picture to be able to leaf through the whole of my publications:
