Have faith in your books! This implies that you need to write books you can buy if it were written by another author. This is because readers only buy books they want or need.

Hence, your books should meet the (Relaxation, Entertainment, Information, and Technical) needs of your target audience.

Some sure ways to enhance your independent publishing experience are:

While publishing your first, and even second books is a great achievement, it is note worthy that the more books you publish, the better the prospect of your sales. So, write and publish as many books as possible.

Amazon Return Policy: It will interest you to know that Amazon's return policy allows a reader (buyer) to return a book within seven days of purchasing it if there is a good reason for doing that and be refunded his/her money.

Although this can be abused and hence can be disadvantageous for an author, it is still not a big problem if you know what to watch out for. The following are some of the important things to do to minimize returns of your book dales:

1. Ensure it's content is as described by it's title and blurb.
2. Ensure it is properly formatted to guarantee readers smooth and enjoyable read.
3. ensure it's list price is reasonable with respect to its content value.
4. Ensure it is listed in appropriate categories.

Someone asked me how he can be a "Best Selling" Author and this was my answer:

Write a great book, professionally edit it, professionally format it, design a professional cover for it, and promote it using AMS or any other paid book marketing services.

Guess what! If you can do those things, you will surely be glad you did.

Do you know that Kindle Unlimited Normalized Pages (KENP) read can substantially increase your royalties if you enrol your books in the Kindle Select program.

In fact, it appears to work best for fiction writers than their nonfiction counterparts.

Writing is an hobby, and that is why it is interesting to know that one can get financial empowerment doing what he/she enjoys and loves doing. And that is where Self-publishing comes in!

CLARIFICATION ON ISBN:
If you are publishing it as an eBook or paperback through Amazon, you don't need an ISBN. It is only if you want to publish it as a paperback book in Nigeria here that you will need one and in that case you can ask a traditional publisher or Liberian where you can get one for your new book.

You can experiment with different genres on Amazon KDP and later concentrate on the one that works best for you.

As a writer or author, it is good you take a little step everyday with respect to writing. This is because these written Words per Day add up to produce what we so cherished later as our own published books.

Be strategic in your writing and publishing, as well as in the choice of publishing platforms and in promotion/marketing methods.

The following are the steps to take to leapfrog from being an unpunished writer to an Independent Author:

1. Write the draft manuscript of the book.
2. Give it out for beta reading if you have beta readers.
3. Edit it.
4. Proofread for the final time.
5. Format it to eBook or print book Amazon KDP standards.
6. Create a publisher account with Amazon KDP.
7. Login to your KDP account and publish the book.
8. Once the book is live, start promoting it while you also start working on your next book.

It will interest you to know that it cost you nothing to publish books through Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing.

The only areas you may have to spend is if you contract someone to edit, proofread, format, or design cover for your books.

This is a self-publishing story that will inspire and motivate you:

The main idea of writing and publishing more books is to ensure that if one doesn't sell, another will do. Hence, your sales will be constant and growing by the day.

Book Idea creation Processes:
1. Brainstorm the book idea
2. Create Outline
3. Review the outline
4. Start Writing.

If you want to get some success publishing through Amazon, you have to make sure your writing has a wider audience appeal. One thing you can easily work on to make this possible is names (be it of characters, places, etc). Make them hypothetical rather than local names so that readers anywhere can flow with the book.

Many people have been asking me how they can promote their Amazon KDP published books, and this is a method that can work for you. The good thing about it is that it is free too.

All you need do is to join Facebook groups which are dedicated to books and authors. You can then post or share the links of your books into the groups.

To make it easier for you to locate and join as many of these groups as possible, here is a link of Facebook Book group lists on my blog. This will help you to quickly join as many of these groups as possible.

Writing and Publishing books is a business and you have to give it the necessary attention and you will surely be glad for it.

There is actually no reason why you should rush into publishing you books as paperbacks in Nigeria when you are not actually sure if they will sell.

It makes more business sense to first publish them as eBook and even paperback through Amazon KDP and if they are doing well in sales, you can then re-invest your profit from such sales to publish them as paperbacks for the Nigerian market.

Taking the "Tax Interview" as part of Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing account creation processes always give Nigerian authors challenges and this is how you can resolve it in case you encounter this problem.

Nigeria has no Tax treaty with America. So, you just simply leave all the questions on tax treaty and move on to the next stage.

Another tricky aspect of the Amazon KDP account creation is the addition of bank account with which to collect your royalties. In this case, you make use of Payoneer.

Note that you can start publishing books through your publishing account without adding the bank account and then add it later when you have gotten it.

Another important factor you have to consider when creating your Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing account is that you have to make use of your official details like name, address, etc
