Hello,
Rocket recently made their rocket writer software, and a program
that allows you to read rocketbooks on the pc, available for free to
the public.
So if you are interested in publishing an ebook of your own, adding
to the rocket digital library, or would like to see what is possible
with an ebook, you might like to check out their site:
I downloaded a Halloween sample a couple of months ago. Having
sound and graphics integrated in the books is a plus paper can't
provide. As writers grow more skilled with multimedia, ebooks will
stop trying to be as good as a paper book and be seen for the
unique means of communication with their own advantages.
