FlipBooks (Calameo)
Calameo is a free publishing platform. All you have to do is create your pdf and upload it.
Gean Tree Press was one of the first journals to use that platform. They also started publishing books in this format.
L.A. thru a lense by Don Baird is abook featuring haiku and photos of graffiti in L.A.
It’s a flipbook. Each time you press the next page button, there’s a pleasant FROUSH sound as the page turns, it’s like flipping through a real book.
