Great post, thank you! Going to be embarking on that journey soon as I'm finishing up my own book (http://hellowebapp.com http://hellowebapp.com). Great breakdown of the process, and your thoughts/mistakes. The first thing I thought when I saw your initial grid was that there was going to be problems with reading text near the spine. Great job catching that and getting the finished version looking great!

First time around is always a learning experience. What's funny is I measured the inner margin distance on a couple of books and also followed CreateSpace's guidelines but I guess I tried to push the limit a bit too much.
- limedaring 12y agoYeah totally — I only knew about it because I took an editorial design class back in the day. One of those little things that not many people are aware of that goes into book design!
