This repository contains some default content that can be added to a new Leanpub book so you can make your first book preview.

Please note that the manuscript folder needs to be at the top level of your book's repository.
Just click "Use this template" on GitHub to create a new repo of your own, with everything set up just like is here.

So, you paste the manuscript folder itself into your repository, not just the contents of the manuscript folder.
At the top level of the repo will be a "manuscript" folder.

In the "manuscript" folder, you will see a file called "Book.txt". The files listed in the "Book.txt" file are the ones that will be used to generate your book.

In this default content repo, the two files listed in "Book.txt" are the "chapter1.txt" and "chapter2.txt" files currently in the "manuscript" folder.

Also in the "manuscript" folder, you will see a "resources" folder. Images and other resources are to be placed in this folder.

Finally, [here is a link to the Markua manual,](https://leanpub.com/markua/read) which shows you everything you can do when you write a book in plain text on Leanpub.

Good luck!
