Lively discussions on the graphic arts and publishing — in print or on the web

In my never-ending quest to find a competent but not overwhelming desktop publishing program for doing book-length publications, I took another look at Microsoft Publisher. I have often lamented that Publisher doesn't offer any templates for books. I was wrong.

Publisher does include a book template -- for a cookbook. Does anyone have Publisher? If so, how difficult would it be to adapt that template to an all or mostly text publication, such as a novel, and then save it as a new template?
