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 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.
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 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 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.❤
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. ❤❤❤
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
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 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
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.
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.
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 🎉🎉
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
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! )
Hi your new subscriber here! 😊 first of all you’re doing an amazing job! 😊Your videos are simple and helpful to the point. My question is what if we want to publish the book in a board book instead of paperbacks? And add something glittery in cover. How to get all that done?
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
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 💕.
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!
This was THE BEST Tutorial I've watched to date. Created my first blank journal and it turned out great with your tutorial. Do you have any advice on how to get my journal to show up on Amazon?
I'm so glad! Congratulations! The simple answer is optimizing your title and subtitle, having a great cover and choosing the right keywords. But, I take a deep dive on how to market and sell books in my entrepreneurship program at BookBagUniversity.com - enrollment is currently closed but feel free to join the waitlist.
Thank you so much for this video. It really helped me A LOT!! you really made this so easy and painless.serioisly! THANK YOU!! request: any videos on copyrighting? I'm stuck on copyrighting before publishing. Thanks again sis! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
how do you add more pages to your journal? THis was wonderful by the way! Thank you so much for explaining everything so well. I really appreciate you!
Thanks! If you're using Canva and want to duplicate a page you can click on the plus sign right above the page you want to duplicate. If you want to add a new page you can click on the "add page" button above the template/page you are using.
Hi, thanks for creating this very informative journal! Have loved the detailing and its so easy to follow! Quick question, I am struggling to choose the catgeory for the journal, can you please help me with the right one for the journals?
