I basically do that same thing. With the number of books I collect and 
read, my poor bachelor suite apartment would be floor-to-ceiling in 
paperback in no time. My iPad has provided an easy way to have a small 
library handy without having to shell out for more damn bookshelves :P

Last night, the idea of ebooks rattled in my head enough that I started 
playing with the idea. I used the existing posts of my Super Wizard 
series as a test, trying to see how easy it would be... came out 
semi-successfully, turns out. I also played around in Photoshop, wanting 
to make a cover.

Here's a quite blog post about my endeavors. Sorry, no ebook download 
links, just some mock-up covers. :P
