Harvardwood Publishing announces "SmartiBooks”: mobile publishing for the iPad, iPhone, iTouch, and other Smartphones. 

An exciting new opportunity for delivery of text and images directly to Smartphones is now available from AppsPublisher.com, through Harvardwood Publishing's partnership with Unlimited Publishing LLC.  Unlike other forms of e-Books, "SmartiBooks” will be standalone applications that do NOT require a separate e-Reading program such as Stanza or the "Kindle-for-iPhone" reader.  Each one is completely self-contained, full-featured, and available worldwide from the Apple App Store, boasting more than 3 billion downloads to date.

Conceived as a fast and easy alternative to conventional book publishing, this program allows authors and artists to publish material that might not otherwise appear in print.  The program is designed for books but is also useful for short stories, poetry, photography, drawings, graphic art, even recipes, family photos, or other material that isn't suitable (or marketable) in book-length form.  It is intended to give Harvardwood's members a platform for sharing their creativity at no expense, while retaining all rights and creative control.

The first release in the Harvardwood series will be "Lawyers, Law and Social Change" by widely-published legal activist Steve Bachmann '73, HLS '76.  Following it will be "Rough Magicke," a fantasy novel by John William Houghton '76, and "Summer Love," a screenplay by filmmaker G. Wayne Miller '76 of Eagle Peak Media.  Additional titles are expected to appear by midsummer.

Gaining momentum from the wild popularity of the new iPad, this "SmartiBooks” program from Harvardwood Books combines a new kind of e-Book technology with independent publishing, allowing members to reach a worldwide audience more directly than ever before possible.  It is a model for artistic self-expression in the 21st Century.
