“No Writing Book Writing” Outlined
Creating content is one of the most important skills in the world today. Whether you are blogging, writing, or speaking, having a personal approach is key.
Creating content with a personal approach allows you to connect with your audience on a deeper level. A personal approach means you are giving something back to them by sharing your story and helping them find their own voice.
It also means that your content is unique to you, and your audience will connect with it because of that.

Introduction
Are you an author who has penned an ebook? Are you experiencing slow sales or no sales at all?
If so, you should spend time on marketing. By ensuring more people see your ebook sales page, you increase interest and profits. You can also take an additional step. That next step is targeting a new market: Amazon Kindle owners. Within just a few minutes, you can easily convert your ebook to an Amazon Kindle book and list it for sale on Amazon.com.
If you recently authored an ebook, you likely used Microsoft Word to do so. Microsoft Word is popular with writers, as it has an easy-to-use format, a spell checker, and a grammar checker.
To sell an ebook, you convert the document into an Adobe PDF file. If you have the original Microsoft Word document, great! If not, use the Adobe PDF file.
Since you have already written and proofread your ebook, the hard work is done. As previously stated, it takes only a few minutes to list an Amazon Kindle book for sale. To get started, visit Amazon.com. You must have a free account. If you don’t, create one.
Scroll down to the bottom of Amazon.com. Click on the link titled “Self-Publish with information.” Add a new item to your dashboard. You will then start the three-part process.
Step one is to add product details. You are asked to summarize the book you are selling. Enter your name as the author, the title, and write a product description. Your product description is very important.
Shoppers will see it and read it before making a purchase. Describe what your book is about, but don’t provide too much information. It leaves shoppers feeling like there is more to learn.
Step two is to upload and preview your ebook. The upload process automatically converts your document into digital text. As was already said, Amazon’s digital text platform can convert both Microsoft Word and Adobe PDF files.
During this step, preview your book. Browse through the entire document. Formatting errors are rare, but not uncommon. Fix any mistakes before proceeding to the next step.
Step three is to set your price. If you have yet to browse the Amazon Kindle Store, do so now. Search for books that are similar to yours. Did you write a horror novel?
If so, look for others in the same genre. What is the average selling price? You want to make money, but a high price can hurt your profits. On average, first-time authors sell their Amazon Kindle books for less than $10.
After entering a selling price, hit the “Publish” button. Your document will no longer be a draft but a live book. It won’t appear in the
the Amazon Kindle Store right away. It should take around 24 hours to appear.
When listing an ebook for sale on the Amazon Kindle Store, you will be asked for a lot of information. This includes your email and bank account information. This is legitimate and do not be afraid to give it. Amazon needs a way to contact you and pay you when your royalties total $10.
Writing Ebooks For The Amazon Kindle
Are you an author who is interested in writing ebooks for the Amazon Kindle platform? If so, you may rethink your decision many times before getting started. You may wonder if writing ebooks for the Amazon Kindle is worth the time. So, is it? It depends.
As with any other moneymaking opportunity, writing digital text ebooks for the Amazon Kindle has its risks. You can write an ebook, convert it to digital text on the Amazon.com website, and list your book for sale, but you aren’t guaranteed sales.
A good cover, a detailed description, a good book, and a fair selling price can increase your chances of profit. But it is important to look at the popularity of the Amazon Kindle. Over a year after its release, it is still a hit. As long as people buy and use the Kindle, you can make money.
As previously stated, the Amazon Kindle is a popular ebook reading device. Why is that?
It Is Portable
The Amazon Kindle pushes ebooks to the next level. Before, users could not escape their computers to read a digital book.
Even those with laptops were at a disadvantage because they couldn’t curl up with an Amazon Kindle. Visit Amazon.com and they have a drop test video for you to watch with your own eyes!
It is easy to clean. Unfortunately, many consumers do not consider cleaning easy when buying electronics. Not only do some readers like to curl up with a blanket and a good book, but a snack too.
Visit Amazon.com and browse the reviews. Many users mention spilling a small amount of liquid or dumping crumbs on the device, but they are all easy to clean. This helps to extend the life and use of the Amazon Kindle.
It Is Wireless
The Amazon Kindle is equipped with Whispernet. It uses Sprint’s data network to connect users to the Amazon Kindle Store on the go.
So, not only can owners purchase an ebook at the drop of a hat, but they can also do so without a computer and connecting cables. This sets the Amazon Kindle apart from its only viable competition, the Sony Reader.
In conclusion
There are many reasons why the Amazon Kindle is not only a popular ebook reader but a hit. As a writer, you can and should use his popularity to your advantage.
Write an ebook, register for a free Amazon.com account, visit the digital text platform, enter in your product description, convert your ebook to digital text, set your selling price, and publish.
Within 24 hours, your book should be listed for sale on Amazon.com. According to their Terms and Conditions, you get 35% royalties from each sale.
