Anatomy of a Story Elves Book for iPad: An Introduction

A couple of years ago, The Story Elves approached me for advice on eBooks and for information about how to create an iBook. This consultancy, which took place in email and over Skype, led to the first book The Story Elves team were to publish called The Waking Prince. A publication was originally available in the iBookstore as a fixed-layout highly-illustrated book.

Fast-forward to November 2012 and we are soon to witness the launch of The Waking Prince as a fully-featured app. The question is how do these two things differ?

I'm glad you asked, over the coming weeks, leading up to the launch, and those following it I'll be discussing the challenges involved in making this highly illustrated and original book app a reality.

Update: the app is now live on the App Store, you can download The Waking Prince here.
