Welcome!

Print books are made of paper and ink — E-books are made of ones and zeroes. The Binary Bindery moves at the speed of self-publishing to produce stable, reader-friendly digital book formats. Knowledgeable, experienced, and friendly producer Meg Silver can build the formats you need, when you need them.

Traditionally, small-press and self-published author, former executive and acquiring editor and all-around student of the wildly changing publishing industry, Binary Bindery founder Meg Silver understands how many plates an author has spinning in the air these days.

The Bindery's goal as a business is to give authors a "one less thing" free pass by taking the burden of e-book production—also known as Decision-Fatigue City—off the author's shoulders. We believe authors should be able to hand over an original document in any condition and receive a quality, stable, retail-ready e-book in return.

About Our Files

When it comes to e-book production, there is more than one way to skin a cat.

Some formatters use aggregators (usually a series of scripts) to produce files. Others convert Microsoft Word™ filtered HTML into different formats. Both are quick, easy methods that promise quick turnaround with a few costly drawbacks.

The Bindery's production method is not the fastest or simplest method out there. We take a source document and strip it down to raw HTML, the base language of today's digital formats. Every header, every break, every special-formatting feature is manually applied and thoroughly tested to ensure a client's files have all the professional-grade bells and whistles, plus a long shelf-life.

Our method works extremely well for major retailer portals like Amazon's Kindle Desktop Publishing, Barnes & Noble's Nook Press, Kobo, Apple, Google Play... basically every retailer a self-publisher needs these days.

Authors need their precious time to write, edit and promote. Let The Binary Bindery shoulder the fine-tooth-comb details of ebook production. Query Meg anytime with questions, queries a/o quote requests.
