fundamentals
Thank you for reading this Free PDF.
I created it because I met several persons who were not able to self
publish their eBook on Amazon. They said:
I haven`t the knowledge to do it. As I truly dislike Vanity Publishing, no
one should pay to get an eBook on Amazon or to get their PDF
transformed to Kindle files.
It`s free and it`s the beauty of selfpublishing.
After having a look at this PDF you`ll be able to use Amazon to
selfpublish your next eBook.
All the pictures used are the property of camillesolutions.com and are here
to help have a better understanding of Kindle Direct Publishing platform.

Why self-publish?
You are writing a book and you are thinking about the next step.
You want to build everything by yourself.
BUT
Are you ready for hard work?
If the answer is yes, keep reading.
Why is self-publishing hard work?
Selfpublish your book is hard work because you are on your own.
You'll have to proofread, edit, design your cover and promote your
book without the resources from an editor.
Think about it.
Do you still want to do it?
Many authors are selfpublished so, why can't you?
What now?
Proofread
Ask a friend, someone you trust,
or hire a professional proofreader.
Advice : if you can, print a copy, It'll be easier to proofread your
book this way.
Edit
This is the big part of your work.
Have a look inside a few books and keep the great ideas.
Take your time for proofreading.
Don't rush yourself but set clear objectives everyday.
