Amazon Kindle Direct Publishing has made a couple of changes since I last made an uploading tutorial, so I figured it was time to do a new tutorial for KDP. In this video, we’re going to be uploading my book, Revenge in Rome, to Amazon KDP. And I will, of course, be walking through it all step by step with you. Following this tutorial, you’ll learn exactly how to upload your own ebook to Amazon KDP and set it up for pre-order or to immediately publish the book.

Aw I was hoping you were going to say this included print preorders at last.
I know, I’m still waiting for that feature too! 😅
I’m considering enrolling my book in KU. It’s my debut YA dark fantasy novel and the first in a 9-book series and I think I will have a better chance of getting more eyes on it.
I personally love it! I feel like it’s easier for readers to take a risk on an unknown book on KU. It’d give it a few months on KU and see how it does!
