While it's still in development, I'm moving over to Muse mode (do a
search for emacs-wiki and muse mode on Emacs Wiki) which is based on
emacs-wiki.

Muse does inline formating of wiki-markup and can then be converted
to docbook, latex, pdf, html, texinfo etc.

I'm nearly finished writing a new extension for converting to TEI-XML.

There are also tools for pulling together longer texts into books.

You'll likely need to do more than a little tweaking to get it
working the way you want, but it's a solid framework for both
authoring and published book length prose.
