Any recommendations for someone UK based to make an #epub version of my book? #books #publishing

@robparsons@bookstodon.com I have converted mine to e-pub via Libre Office and Calibre. It is a fiddly process, and formatting does not, necessarily, survive as you want it. I think there is a programme called Sigil that can convert, but I've not tried it. I would tend to do it myself even when uploading to KDP or Kobo, as, at least, I know it will end up as near as possible to how I want it, rather than trusting their processes. But I do nothing overly complicated like links, footnotes...
