Yes, as long as you do not enrol in the KDP select program. KDP select last for 90 days.After each 90 days u can choose to continue or stop.

Read the first post at the beginning of the thread.

@mk82. is it reasonable to have 2 price tags in euros and dollars for a book(s) ? since one is targeting the u.s. and uk/europe markets. or should it just be one price tag for every market ?

@mk82 can someone upload books that have re-selling rights?

Good work mk82. Plz how do we get payment and which format should the books be uploaded. Is it pdf?

Chidonsky: @mk82 can someone upload books that have re-selling rights?

dat is d shortcut to account banning. Kindle is highly allergic to PLR,MRR and the likes.strictly original work dat cannot be found online easily.

sam ogo: Good work mk82. Plz how do we get payment and which format should the books be uploaded. Is it pdf?

Payment for Nigerians is check. PDF is not a good format. there are software dat can be used to convert directly to kindle format.Ms word is also accepted. the only problem is to get the formating.

There are many software, just Google it and you will find them.
However, the software will not do the formating for you. It will only convert to kindle file.
I'll advice you all stick to MS Word. You can do everything in WORD. The most important aspect is d formating. You have to learn how to properly format your books. The font size,paragraph spacing,page setup,margins,table of content etc. It's a long tutorial dat I can't post here.Even if we are sitting face to face,I'll need 1-2 hours to teach it.

I have noticed a tendency for Nairalanders or Nigerians to want free information. Please, I'll advice the [b]"inbox me the details" [/b]group to stay off this thread. Kindle is not one of those "online businesses" you have heard about. It has been giving some of us regular monthly income without additional work and it can happen for any other person who is serious minded.

The information I am releasing here is the result of over one year of publishing on KDP. One year going thru d grinding process.You don't want go through what I went through. I uploaded a book in pdf,everyting scattered when it entered d system so I had to research formating because buyerz started complaing and giving nasty reviews. One of my brothers had plagiarism problems and kindle almost banned d account etc etc

We had to invest in quality materials so we can learn. I have more than 4 GIG of materials on kindle publishing. The videos and several eBooks I and my friends have bought are more than $2000.

If I decide to write an eBook today and sell to Nigerians, it will not be less than N15,000. I have done one-on-one training for a few people at N25,000 and they are still thanking me up till today.

Please, lets appreciate what we have and not abuse it.
I am still here for those who need my help.

Thank you.

mk82: Just Want You Guys To See This Screen Shot Of My Account:
It's showing only the first 11 books because the remaining books below cannot be captured at the same time.

lovely. That's like 75 books sold in one month, which would have brought you like $150 dollars. And you said that is just a portion of your sales. That's nice. I started in January, and have 5 books up. The two fiction books I put up are not selling anything at all, but the non fiction books make me average of $10 a month. very low I know, I guess I have to work on the niches I am writing on. Thanks for this thread, it is really inspiring. My goal is to be making $6,000 from my book sales every month on Amazon Kindle. I know it is a long short, but I know people that make that much, and I know I can make that much with the right books.

I'm glad there are other people making some effort.Fiction is the best selling niche in kindle but it's also the one with the highest failure rate. I outsourced some fiction books a few months ago and I'm yet to get back my capital from d sales. meanwhile my nonfiction books pay for themselves within a week.
Your $6000/month is not long shot at all.it is very possible.I'm working with a similar plan.

Those of you asking for kindle software...
You don't need any software to write your book
Just write your book in microsoft and when saving it
Make use of the 97-2000 doc.
Remember its doc and not docx that you will be saving on...

About cover for your kindle book.
Well since what am writing are low price I just simply use microsoft to and create a table with the border thinkened in black and simply paste a catchy image in the centre and the name of your book at the top.
You authors name below the image and if you have any sub topic u can fix it either at the top of the image or below the image...

And when saving the image, make sure u save as a web page and simply use a screen capture software to copy what u have created into jpeg...

That was what I did that made my book to be accepted and it was formatted well when I previewed it...

Over to you mk82, make I learn more from you

You can use escaliber to convert to kindle format which is .MOBI. or you can work with just Microsoft Word. Your choice

I'm loving this.
New idea
New opportunity
Thanks for this.

Gat some few questions.
1. Do i need any special acc maybe domiciliary acc to cash my check wen it arrive? Hw do i cash it?
2. Is it advisable to be a specialised writer on a particular niche, or i can write in different niches and still be a selling author?
