So my book turned out to be 444 pages on Kindle format, interesting.
I'll leave it at 4.97 for three days, then I'll run a discount promo for a week at 0.99. After that, I'll increase it to 6.69 - my other photo books are all on promos too.

Well from the onset, I never thought of publishing the book. The earliest chapters can be traced back to experiences in 2016 so it isn't a common book or a book written with the motivation of "Money".

Idk, submitted manuscript as .doc, but I had 3 pages for title content and copyright, then 1 extra at the back..

The word count is too small to reach 444 page, an 11, 000 words book usually give me 73 pages.


You should format it well and you'll get some thing like 100 pages or it can be less lets say 80 pages and above.

See what matter here:


You should use Laptop to format it in MS Word

1. Your page size for example 6.69x5.56

2. Your font size e.g 12, 14, 16


3. Your font style e.g verdena, times new roman etc

4. Your spacing for example single line spacing, double spacing

First of all, the subtitle's last word should be "Ageing" not "Aging".
You didn't add paragraphs to your description, paragraphs makes it look professional.
Your last sentence talks about "Reversing sickness" I think observing from the previous statements, it should be "Avoiding illnesses associated with ageing" or "Curing sickness with the mind".
I no be pro Sha, I just observed as a normal reader.
Your cover photo looks gloomy and sad, I presume reading your book should make an ageing person feel happy and lively, your cover photo says otherwise.
