I'm still polishing up "Make Your Own Sugar Activities!" but I'm thinking about doing another book and I've lined up some possible collaborators. The subject will be Reading and Sugar. It won't just describe the use of the various reading Activities (but that will be included), it will be a complete as possible guide to getting the most out of Sugar as a platform for reading e-books. Only a few of the chapters will be Sugar-specific, so it should be possible to remix it to make a book about finding and creating e-books in general.
Topics will include e-book formats and the pros and cons of each, where to get free e-books, what Activities to use for reading, creating your own e-books with free tools, scanning public domain books so they may be donated to Project Gutenberg and the Internet Archive, copyright laws and licenses, etc. When you set up "Make Your Own Sugar Activities!" you set up a bunch of empty chapters. We're still working on the chapter outline so I'd prefer just an Introduction chapter and a Credits chapter to begin with. The website only handles three word titles so maybe "Reading and Sugar" would do as a title for now. Please let me know what you think.
