About

My name's Julie and I've been running Global Grey for around fourteen years. I format all the ebooks myself, as well as maintaining the website. There are no ads on the site, no corporate sponsorship - just me and my passion for books.

In around 2007 I ran a conspiracy website, which was also called Global Grey.

Then I closed that down as it got way too depressing, and a few years later, created a more spiritual one, which eventually led to this incarnation that is Global Grey ebooks.

It started off as a hobby and my aim was to set up the site as a place where people could find and download quality ebooks. The original idea definitely came from a love of books in general.

I also felt that, at the time, ebooks were not afforded the same standards as print books, and were often in terrible formats, with no cover page, no table of contents, and rather haphazard spacing of paragraphs and chapters. So that became another main aim of this site; to produce and publish ebooks that were of a good quality; that were readable, nicely laid out and well presented, and that had footnotes and illustrations correctly placed, when applicable. All of the ebooks on the site are formatted by me.

New books are added almost every day, although sometimes I do get distracted with working on other things.

None of the books on the site are DRM protected.

The website itself, I code by hand. I used to run it on Wordpress, but now it's a static HTML/CSS website that takes me a little more effort to maintain, but which I feel is so much better for me and my visitors.
