Wow this has been soooo informative. I made a mistake (i think) by going into amazon kdp and their was a share your info and a number so they called me kdp amazon and they tried to sell me on publishing on amazon he was saying well now youll have a isbn, a PM thatll help thru the process, etcetc, its a few things they mentioned. Im like but i keep seeing we can do it free lol hes like well u wont get the isbn, u wont get a PM and designer thru it , and the author pay out cost is diff, that the publishing & distribution is diff, legal requirments, copyrights, etcet ... im Like ughmmmmm idk bout that 😐 ... any thoughts anyone???
Hi Latoya, I like to your video. Thank you. I tried to subcribe to your channel but something pops up and it wont let me....weird. I subcribe to other channels and it works. Not sure if its a glitch on your side or my computer.
This is the absolute best tutorial on creating and selling a journal! I watched your video from start to finish and published my first journal on the same day! Thank you, Latoya Nicole!
@@LatoyaNicoleOfficialhello, I'm new in this and I don't understand do I need to have it already printed and sell it like a real book, or it's digital so person who purchased print it for herself???
Thank you so much for this!! I prayed and asked God to lead me to the right video to learn how to create my own journal! And He did just that!! Thank you so much for being Obedient to Jesus and helping so many people like me💖💖💖💖🙌🏾 I’m so confident now I can create my own journal!!! Hallelujah
Thank you thank you thank you! This is the first Tutorial video I was able to follow through and complete. Currently waiting on my approval for a Travel Journal.
Info that may help someone: if the file that downloads from KDP isn't in the right format, and it's in a .zip format, you can right click to extract the files and you should be able to upload one of the files it extracts. For me, I was able to then upload the PNG file into Canva. If this doesn't work, you may need winzip or a zip file extractor on your computer and there are free ones available.
Thank you I finally figured out how to do this I didn’t realize you had to save both files I spent all day literally from 8am till now to figure it all out for the second day in a row
I have great ideas for journals and childrens coloring books, but after trying for 5 days in a row, from 9 am to 9 pm ... I've realised that I must be the dumbest person in the world when it comes to creating these books, which I'm so motivated to do. However, at my age, in my mid 60's, I am so frustrated I eventually just gave up trying now! 😢
I love your content. I’ve followed your steps on how to make journals and colouring books on canva. My cover and back covers kept having errors, after several attempts Im vertified and uploading a prayer journal at this moment. I can't thank you enough for all your help. A sister in Christ is a sister for life, continue to work for the kingdom of God.❤
Not sure if this will help others, but my canva side menu did not have a background option. I had to manually add it from the 'apps' side menu option. Also, Latoya states to download the PDF version but she downloads the PNG versions in the tutorial so try both if the first option doesnt successfully upload to KDP. Thank you so much for the info, Latoya ❤
Thank you. Im new to the channel. I created a prayer journal on Canva for myself after showing some family and friends. Im now in the process of trying to set it up for kP. Im so grateful for this video. ❤❤❤
I had no idea about KDP! Nor how to make the cover or back cover - this def helped. I been making separate pages and struggling how to make it a book. Def trying this evening and will see how the template looks. I have 3 journals I made page by page about 80-180 pages. 🙏🏾#invested 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Thank you for the information. I just finished writing my first memoir, which will be published soon. The Holy Spirit also led me to include a journal. Thanks again.
This tutorial is very easy to follow. Thank you Latoya for making it so simple, I created my own journal in one afternoon. I pray you have much success in your business, you are awesome
Thank you so much for this tutorial. The KDP cover calculator has saved me hours of headaches as I was just a tad off on my calculations. I appreciate you sharing the information, as well as your positive channel and publications. I am so thrilled to be subscribing to your channel! -Kathryn
You mentioned the book would be 121 pages. Is that printable? I am so old school and I am thinking it has to be in numbers of 4's for printing. Can you help me understand that? Thank you!
Woman, I LOVE you. Thank you for this video! I've been wanting to make journals for a specific Niche forever, you saved my ass with this video because it's Easy Peasy, booty squeezy here! lolololol
I can’t wait to tag you in my published books! This was so great!!! Thank you! I’m waiting on my author publish copy before I publish but I’m overly excited 🎉🎉
Thanks so much for this tutorial. It was the best one I've seen so far. And your voice was cathartic to listen to while you were putting the example together. (I promise I'm not being weird or creepy, LOL! )
Your video was very helpful, but can you send me the link to watch the video that you put the cover and back page of the book together once the internal parts of the book is completed.
Hey Latoya Nicole! I've been following your channel for a couple of months now.. but just wanted say I love what you're doing with your brand. It's brilliant how you've combined KDP and FBA! Will be looking forward to keeping up with your business and future projects!
Girl… you’ve just earned yourself a new subbie! Thank you soooooo much for this video. Yah (god) has definitely answered my prayers through your video 💕.
Thank you for this video. I have completed my journal and uploaded it to Amazon to be published however Amazon sent it back stating that I need to modify the cover to resize the background or image on your cover so that it extends 0.125” (3.2 mm) beyond the trim line. I put in the cover size based on the template like what you modeled in the video. Do you have any suggestions on how I can fix this? Thanks
Hi Latoya! I so appreciate you making this video! I have followed it step by step and it was so smooth! However, when I try to upload the cover on KDP it gives me an error and I can’t figure out what the error could be. I’m completely stuck and was wondering if you or anyone else has had this issue?! Thanks!
Thank you for breaking this down! I created my journal on can a before coming across your video. I’m having a hard time converting my front and back page. Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Super helpful! New subscriber thanks 🫶🏽♥️

Can you request the cover to be something other than paper? Like a fabric or have a spiral binding of sorts?
Hardcover is your only other option at this time on KDP.
