- This is the third video in a series of "classes" designed to go over Self-Publishing. For 10 minutes, I'll take a quick dive into Amazon's KDP program, one of the most popular and easy to use self publishing platforms. Of course, this video as my others in the series comes with a little bit of insider advice and personal experience.

Niiiice! Thanks so much for sharing, Kendryk!
Love this!! Thanks for the tips ❤
Did you publish
Thank you appreciate the information. I do have works 450 pcs and trying to digitized them at this point.
Best of luck! Trust the process.
Thank you
You're welcome, I'm thinking of making an update video to this video because so many people have questions. If you have any then reply here and I'll include it in the next video.
My wife and I watched it last night.
I have a 27-page poem book, can I publish that many or would they say I need more pages?
You can definitely publish it but you may not have the required pages to have a title on the spine.
Did u publish
At least 70 to 100
A Poetry book is from 40-100 pages . Anthology
Then a Snap Book is 10-30 poems
Collection goes from 50-100
Is the copyright page something I will need to get together or does KDP create that for you automatically?
how to put poetry in manuscript. I uploaded one poem. It said it needed 76 pages. It would not accept the next poem
You have to copy and paste all of your poems in one document. The very first page of your book should be your title page, followed by your copyright page, then the table of contents. The next page is either a dedication page or a note from the author (this is optional). After this point it's poem1, 2, 3, etc. KDP apparently is asking for 76 pages but that's 76 pages total and not 76 one page poems. Hopefully this helps you.
Hello,
Had trouble finding the Playlist with the other two videos from this series on this video page. Could you please comment below this comment with the link? Thank you, Aaron
Hey Aaron, this is the full playlist, where since then in addition to the 4 classes I've added several other shorts.

I have four poetry books (but they're in spanish because it is my first language). I published one this month, i just use WORD and CANVA for the inside/ outside... I want to publish the other three books but i am not sure if it is ok or convenient to publish all at once... Of course i have no sells (well, just two sells)
Hola Emma! Felicidades on the publishing of your book! 🥳
Usually, it's a good idea to take some time between publishing books, as you want to give people time to purchase and spend time with each one. Sometimes, authors publish multiple books at the same time, and one can suffer in sales over the other.
I think you should concentrate on letting people know about the book and having others share the link in order to get more people interested.
the cover tool is fine. Just fair.
That sounds so very inspirational i really appreciate it but do you know there's people out there that's actually giving that report for free i thank you really appreciate that i will go because my poetry removed all that would you have to say make someone else become noticed what you got a hold of that play some how do you ever pass the torch
Sir all my poems in telugu language. So am i eligible or not?
A yr ago I have mix poems, poetry and stories there mixed
I have my book put together on “Pages” on my apple laptop and formatted each page how i want it to look like but I still dont know whats the next step to take
Hi Fairy, you're going to have to go on KDP and create an account. Afterwards, follow the steps :-)
Would 60 pages be ok, to publish my first poetry book on Amazon?
Can I publish a single poem?
In a book? Sure, if it's long enough.
is 40-50 pages ok to publish on KDP Amazon ?
I did all of that and he just said I need to pay $5.99 so what are you saying again I'm sorry I'm lost
I’ve done about 130 poems, don’t know how to move on from here as a first time poet, publishing is something else
Love the motivation ❤
🙏AUM 🙏
I put them together in my notebook
Jumping straight to spoiler alert so I don't waste time on a video possibly....
By that "Chef's Kiss Poety Ready" comment.... Does this mean you are of the mindset and push that everything must be 'perfect' ? Be a specific way thus not individual writer but like a group of people (some kind of specific, a standard...), rules, and practically a damn diploma to be worthy? (Yes I have run into several like that, why I am asking this way) If so, peace out. I have rhn across way too many people with that advocated view....
I'm looking for someone who doesn't make ya feel like you're in a fashion industry rule set tailored for writing perfectionism....
Looking for a neutral view, factual. not "chef's kiss" 'standard'. someone who talks about the factual steps, not how good one's work has to be... non-judgmental
This sounds like a lot of work and stuff needs to be copyrighted. I have some poems and short stories but its not easy on this competitive area and some that are after to get you if you don't be careful. Who can you really trust to share to the world?
If you watch the entire playlist, I answer how you can copyright the work and protect yourself pretty simply.
In regards to a competitive market and who you can trust, this is true. With Amazon's KDP, there's nothing else in it for them besides taking a bit of the cost off the top of the sale for producing the book and in regards to it being competitive, this is the toughest part about being a writer. It's important to build a community of folks that will engage with your writing. And this can be as big or small of a community as you'd like to work to nurture.
