I've been watching you for 3 weeks now and you sir are AMAZING! All of your videos are gold! I finally am live with 7 notebooks, I know I'm probably not going to do well sales wise with them but I know each time I've learned a whole lot more by creating and uploading them! Now I'm about to finish an awesome sudoku book (very proud of this one as it took 13 hours to create) and I couldn't have done any of it without your help! THANK YOU!

Mark Laporte, Just watched Paul's video (probably for the 3rd time so info sinks in properly!) and just happened to read your comment as you are the top comment. I'm still a newbie and haven't completed my first book yet but was just wondering as it was a year ago you wrote this message, on how you have done with your KDP journey. How did your Sudoku book do? :)

Hii! Love the video! Also if anyone is looking at this and following the same routine always. You can click the image instead of dragging it over, it will apply to the page you're hovering over, then right click and set as background and it will use the "blue border" to fill the page, so everything is still within the lines :3

I, like you make my interiors in PP and will use a variety of design platforms for the artwork. I feel this might be a dumb question but, why do we want a box in which to put the little Santa or Elf graphic? I have generally just put these "on top" of the lined page. Just curious because maybe I have been messing up my own work, or just been lucky that it appears to have worked, LOL! As always excellent video! Thank you so much! 👍😉

Because some graphics have transparent backgrounds and some graphics don’t have the background dimensions that look right on the page. Also makes the page look more symmetrical.

I think if you upload an interior with colour but specify black & white in the upload process, Amazon will show it as with colour in the 'look inside' feature on your listing but actually print it black and white. End result being unhappy customers.

Hi. I’m loving your videos and I’ve bought some of your interiors and keywords. I’m severely disabled and also have cognitive dysfunction. My brain works really slowly when it actually does work. Anyway. I “work” lying down on my bed. I become exhausted very quickly. Long story short I can’t use a laptop but I’ve found I can manage to use iPad and iPhone ok. My questions? Can you do some tutorials that only use IPad or iPhone to produce and/or adapt bought templates, covers, download to Amazon etc? I know this will be difficult for you because the iPad versions of things like Word, excel, etc are much more limited than the full desktop versions. Please think of this as a new year challenge to help those of us who aren’t skilled with computers or don’t own one but who are familiar with their smartphones and tablets. Hey, there’s an idea for another series of videos. After you look at IPad and IPhone you can do a series on Android Please forgive me if this is too big an ask. I know I can do this. But I need help.
