My First Time Publishing a Kindle eBook in Amazon and How You Can Do the Same

in e-book •  2 years ago 

When I was young in my high school years, I discovered that it was good when it comes to creative writing. Then I used to excel in English compositions, either in an English test or exam.

I could easily find an imaginative story and make it so well that you will think it really happened. If you are asked to remember an interesting experience in my last long vacations; Know you just cheered. I will write and write as if my life depended on it. Naturally came to me and I loved it. It seemed very easy to do.

I thought I would be a writer/author, when I grew up. But along the line, I lost interest in writing and found myself in the accounting profession. But writing was still easy for me.

I lost interest and did not intervene a career that I wrote, especially after reading so many stories of rejection of aspiring writers who had their books of 200-300 pages rejected by each editorial to which they sent it. They all had anything for their efforts, except the rejection letter. I wasn't ready for that. Imagine years to write what you think is a masterpiece, just for your dream to become a nightmare. I wanted to save myself from this agony. That is why I lost interest in pursuing the dream of writing.

Then came the books of Amazon and Kindle. Amazon created the Kindle reader and needed unlimited content that people could read about their reader E. They had to encourage people to write and load all kinds of content on their platform. This is how Kindle Direct Publishing emerged.

Many writers aspiring this opportunity and jumped on her. Soon there were many stories of people who made a murder of this. There was even an unknown writer named Amanda Hocking who won more than one million US dollars from the platform.
Every day I saw that my dream of being a writer through Kindle and Amazon could come alive once more. Then I decided to try. I had to publish my first electronic book on the Kindle platform.

In this article, I will write my experience.

I remember it as yesterday. I wrote a story about a girl who had a vision of Jesus Christ. Let's say she had an encounter with Jesus Christ who led her on a tour of heaven and hell.

I think I read the story several years ago when I was a child, but I was trapped as a young man with Christian background; My grandfather was a shepherd and founder of the Church.
I took a day to do the electronic book and another one day to make the edition. And I was ready with my first electronic book for the Kindle platform.

From the beginning I found that the Kindle platform was intuitive and very easy to use. I was surprised and relieved. Uploading my first electronic book was very easy because the Kindle platform automatically converts its document file (in my case, a Word document) in the Kindle format. You don't have to make any conversion yourself. Simply upload the word DOC and be ready to start.

Uploading your cover for your electronic book is also easy. But allow me to confess here that the Ecover almost moved me away from the platform. Let me explain; He had no technical knowledge of graphic design. I thought it was difficult and I couldn't do it. How wrong I was.

When I must and I decided to do it, I discovered that Amazon even has a creator of his own ecover that anyone can use to make a simple but still beautiful ecover. That was what I used and it was also a breeze.

Once I uploaded my Word Doc Manuscript and Ecover, my electronic book was approved and alive in the Amazon market in a matter of hours. I still remember feeling. Now he was author. My dream and vision of childhood have come true.

While my electronic book went up, I discovered that anything that was not sure was quite covered on the Amazon site. If there is something that does not understand and I would like a response from a human being, you can send an email to admit and receive an answer very soon.

There were several thousand titles in each category on the Kindle platform and you needed to put your electronic book on
