Self-publishing Amazon Books (CreateSpace Self-publishing)
Offered By: Udemy
Course Description
Overview
What you'll learn:
- To show you how to format your manuscript for publication using Microsoft Word
- To publish your manuscript for POD paperback distribution on Amazon using KDP Print
***Important Course Update ***
In August 2018, Amazon announced that the KDP Print web-based interface would be replacing Createspace as Amazon’s Print on Demand (POD) paperback self-publishing interface. The Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) interface will be familiar to those who have self-published Kindle eBooks on Amazon.
Section 3: Publishing Your Paperback Book via KDP
Has been added to this course to replace the original Createspace publishing instructions retained in:
Section 4: Publishing Your Book via CreateSpace
Section 5: Managing Your Books
All other sections have been kept in place since the process for formatting your document with Microsoft Word has not changed.
Since sections 4 and 5 are only of historical interest, students should skip these sections to view the course conclusion.
Note that there will be significant references to Createspace in the lectures I retained. Simply replace the word Createspace with KDPPrint when you hear it and everything should be fine.
I hope you enjoy the new course,
---Brian
