pls,I just wrote a book and wanting to start publishing after all I have heard.
My question is....1: is it a must to add table of contents in my book?the book doesn't have too many pages, and for each points I surround the writeups on, they have few pages or not what I will consider as chapter worthy and I don't want to do that since it seems adding table of contents will make you add chapters too...i think.

2,I am using my phone from editing, typing, converting to epub,cover design, and hopefully publish....pending when I get a new system, can this work?

3,since in kindle they don't have back cover only front cover design, where does one write the about the author, is it compulsory?
P.s,I don't even want to.

Pls help a brother and respond.

-If the book is at least a few thousand words, you can add table of contents. You don't have to call them chapters. Just write each topic line by line in the TOC. E.g.
Introduction
First Step
Second Step
etc
-Your smartphone can work but it's going to be tedious and difficult to spot errors.
-About the author is not necessary.

God bless you for this post. You have indeed spoken well. There's nothing wrong with selling when it's properly channeled. However, the incessant posts for sales of information/coaching on this thread is way beyond the ordinary.

mk82:

Good day HeliosHay
Two of the several beneficiaries of this thread called my attention to your recently reinforced and incessant push to sell your mentorship and other services on this thread.
I can see you have been answering questions and providing some useful information. I also have seen that you have answers to any question or challenge thrown at you about the sincerity of your intentions (by people who suspect that you are a scammer).

However, you have continuously littered almost every page of this thread From February 11th, practically begging people to pay for your mentorship and other services.


The purpose of starting this thread, started in 2013, was not to make money. It was is to reveal what I discovered about KDP which later evolved to online publishing and build a community of successful Nigerian online publishers. The one on training and DVD of publishing materials that people pay me for started after many people requested that I make them available and they will pay. I have not and will not advertise these or any services. It takes a lot of my time and is a great distraction to the increasing targets of my publishing business.

Many people have had great financial growth through this thread (I am talking of substantial regular monthly income, cars bought and houses built). Some of them did not even pay me or any other person one kobo. We want to maintain the spirit of this thread by keeping it non-commercial.

Please, take your mentorship and other services to your own thread, build your followership and get the “customers” you seem to be in dire need of. We don’t want it here. Stop littering this thread with your adverts for mentorship and other services.

I believe if you truly are making the amount of money shown on the screenshots you posted; you will not be here begging people night and day to pay for your mentorship. I had to double the fee for my one-on-one training to discourage people from coming because of the burden of providing support for the large community of people that I have trained.

I stopped commenting on this thread regularly because I saw that we now have a good number of people capable of providing answers to the questions of new entrants into the business although I still answer all requests through email. It’s unfortunate that you see it as an opportunity to make money.

Again, take your mentorship and other services to your own thread, build your followership and get the “customers” you seem to be in dire need of. We don’t want it here. Stop littering this thread with your adverts for mentorship and other services.
Thank you.
Mk82

I came in contact with this thread yesterday n i have finished reading from page 1 to the end, no, its nothing, you sire, and the other able contributors did all the work and i am really grateful something like this is here that we can reference to.
On the downside, this thread started since 2013 ,I am about 7years late, which I am not sure the kindle publishing even started then.....i did came late to the party, but I understand its bettsr late than never.....hopefully there are still Drinks left for latecomers.
About the phone thing,I know it will be real hardwork but its only temporary, till I can get some funds to repair my system.
For all your selfless service and other contributors, once again is aay well done guys.
Re: Making Regular Income Publishing Amazon Kindle Ebooks by Lordswazz(m): 3:16pm On Aug 25, 2019
Good afternoon all. I came across this post about a month ago after seeing some other thread about the possibilities that abound in the self-publishing world. I must say a big thank you to the thread creator, mk82, as well as all the other good people that have taken time to contribute.
From lessons learned here and by additional research, i have been able to publish my first book, and it has been put live in the kindle store.
Now the issue is, i am seeing "limited availability" in both the US and UK stores, while it is fully live in other stores. Can anyone please help clarify what that implies? Thank you.

One, I hope your book is non fiction.

Secondly, if I were you, I would have gone to a cyber cafe or a computer center to pay 300-500 naira to have my work properly edited and formatted.
You are into business and you must not fall short of quality work.

You are like 3 years late with your advice. Wish I got it years ago. This was what i was saying when i said keep African things to Africa

If you publish Nigerian style novels on Amazon no one will buy it. It took me years to realize that it was my novel not amazon was the wahala. we are talking about novels that were best sellers on Okadabooks and nairaland literature section, mind you.

I no longer write nigerian books

I guess we are alike. I totally understand you. I'm also a fiction writer...I have 30 stories on Nairaland literature section, and 11 novellas published across Amazon/Apple/Barnes and Noble...but yet nothing. I wasted 3-4 years writing Nigerian style novels and trying to sell on Amazon and Apple. All the while, mk82 kept telling me to stick to non-fiction, but I wouldn't listen. It was just hard for me to stick to non-fiction when everyday I wake up to a new fiction story idea.

After a while, I started out writing erotica with a female American pen name. It was much better when it came to earnings compared to my Nigerian stories, where I made just a few dollars monthly at my peak. embarassed But even at that, after about 25 short erotica stories written, I still make very little. An embarrassing $10 a month at my best month. My books are on Kindle Unlimited and they are mostly read by people on the unlimited program...so about 200 page reads of my stories only amounts to $1. Pitiful. cry

I went ahead to write one gay short story when I read how profitable the market for gay books was, but although that did better than all my other erotic books (3-4 sales monthly with no promo), I just couldn't write another. Writing that story took a toll on me.

With all that said, I will advise any newbie to stick to non-fiction. Please don't make the same mistake I made. I wrote a total of 60 stories in 5 years and made very little from it. Imagine if I had invested that time into writing non-fiction. I remember a time in 2015 when I dedicated some time to writing short 'How To' books and I was making an average of $100 monthly. I wish I had stuck with non-fiction, but the writer in me wouldn't let me. I was slipping slowly into depression cos I had this uncontrollable urge to write fiction. I guess the ability to write fiction is both a gift and curse for me.

Long story short, please stick to non-fiction.

By the way, my stories on nairaland were posted with my other account. I have noticed some people going through my posts because of this comment. I have a split personality...this is my more flexible account...not my serious account.

If you're looking for inspiration to stick to non-fiction, here it is

August turned out to be a great month for me - broke a lot of personal records namely:

- First time I earned over $12,000 in a month
- First time I earned over $13,000 in a month
- First time I earned over $6000 in a month with just paperback sales
- Most sales made in a single day ($829.72)

Income breakdown is as follows:

- KDP (ebook + KENP): $1753.45
- KDP Paperback: $6004.7
- Audiobook sales: $5725

Total Earnings: $13,483.15 (N4.85 million)

You need focus to achieve your goals...quit dabbling in a LOT of different things but focus on a few key things that work.

Just like Bruce Lee said "I fear not the man who has practised 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times"

If you've committed to non-fiction publishing, go ALL IN and avoid any distractions (i.e. low content books/journal publishing, fiction books, affiliate marketing, Amazon FBA, Domain flipping, Blogging, Forex trading, Bet9ja etc.)

the new "oil company" don pay salary. grin Budget at least 7 months to 1 year to get to 1k per month consistently. To reach oga at the top levels, budget two years at least or shitloads of money and guidance. Nevertheless keep grinding. It's real. It will pay. Happy New month.
