#KINDLE EBOOKS PUBLISHING SOFTWARE#
Kindle Create is a special software programme you can download and work with to create your Kindle book in the easiest way possible. That’s why they try to make every stage of the publication process as easy as possible for indie authors. It’s not quite the same when you’re tied to a traditional publisher.Īmazon wants you to publish your book on their KDP platform because they have a vested interest in making money, just like us authors. When you self-publish on Amazon, you choose what your cover looks like, how the formatting is presented, how your content is set out and which additional pages to include (think, About the Author and Connect with the Author pages). Nothing like a deadline for spurring you on. And it’s great for making you commit to a deadline too. Generating interest and warming up potential readers weeks before your book’s launch date is an excellent marketing tactic that many of the best-selling authors use. You can set up your Kindle book for pre-order When your book’s uploaded you can make it available to countries all over the world. And if you want to change your cover, your book blurb, the Amazon sales description, the price, keywords and categories, you can!
As long as no more than 20% of the book’s content is altered you can resubmit a new version without having to make a ‘2 nd edition’. That’s such a relief, I find, to many of my authors who sometimes want to add extra content to the book, change a phrase or chapter title, that kind of thing. Even once you’ve published your book, you can still make changes. You don’t even have to buy an ISBN either as ebooks don’t require them. You can set up and publish your book for free. So there’s no need to mess around with mobi files, ePubs and/or HTML coding. You can also upload your book in a Word format and let KDP turn it into a Kindle-readable file for you. Setting up your publishing account, working through the dashboard and uploading your book to KDP for submission is relatively easy. I’ve published many of my own Kindle books there too.Ĭreating a Kindle book using Amazon’s KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing) platform has so many benefits, namely: If you’ve finished writing your book and you’re researching publishing options, keep reading. Having helped hundreds of authors since 2013 to publish ebooks (and paperbacks) on Amazon Kindle, I can highly recommend this platform.
