And show you how I overcame that by building a six-figure passive income business and become a self-made millionaire at age 26.

[@pauladominique]

Sean is so comfortable with this process that he just flies through it! I'm formatting my first book (for kids 9-12) and I wonder if absolutely all of these tips apply in my case. I'm itching to publish but am worried that I've missed something major in my formatting.

[@primepeaks-v8s]

THANK YOU SO UCH THIS IS THE EASIEST HAVE EVER WATCHED AND HEARD... I WILL GO DO THIS RIGHT NOW

[@properjob]

Nicely set out and explained, thanks. I would have liked a quick link to jump forward to the paperback instructions.

[@geraldkyle5819]

Thank you Sir. I learned a lot from your tutorial.

[@art_strings]

This was so good. My books which now look much better than what Kindle Create can do!

[@valentinekosisochi3265]

Thanks, we have been battling book blockage for over two months now, but finally the solution is out...I am just glad. I am also ready to help others bypass it😅

[@inegbenoiseogbeifun4640]

What's d solution please

[@beautytips911]

Thank you for an excellent video! Is it possible for this to be done in Google Doc?

[@spiritualmediumcatherineon9403]

Thank you. I learned a number of new things here! Problem: when I upload my 6 x 9 document as suggested into kdp the margins are incorrect. Did I miss something?

[@antoniolicata6333]

Excellent guide. Is it possible to save all the settings and use them for another book by copying and pasting? or do I have to go through all the steps for each book? Thank you

[@deenyc730]

This is great information! Thank you. Is the free course still available? Both links above seem to go to a paid course. I'd like to check out the free course first!

[@CR7468]

Thank you so much for all these free information that you are giving❤. Can you please make a video on how to find a profitable niche in fiction? I have been struggling with finding profitable niche in fiction, for a long time now. I am really passionate about writing and publishing my books and, its my dream. I cant invest money on buying keyword research tools. Please make a video on that topic.😊

[@earlybirdpips]

It's a gem❤

[@kylersloan6394]

Thank you much. Kindle Create pales in comparison to Word as an editor.

[@Reza20003]

Hi thanks for your videos buddy. Can you make a video about one of your best seller books ?

[@Henry_Okooboh]

can i use google doc for it?

[@erinkuhn6415]

Help! Did you ever make a video expanding upon the header and footer? How do we remove header and page numbers only from Chapter pages without restarting the count?

[@meibergstrmandersen9181]

Hi this is super cool. Can you give a hint to how to take a blok of text and convert that into a table or a picture. In order to have a book not only containing text, but also nice tables, graphs and pictures. br Kenneth

[@creativeperry8930]

Please make video on how to create ebook cover correctly for kdp with mobile.

[@letssolveitten1728]

Thank you so much. Can one format books on Canva?

[@Ashley36595]

Can you add pictures when formatting?

[@PaulLangan]

Thank you

[@Phantom-Shaldas]

I love your work, i wanted to ask can authors in countries Ingram spark don't work with purchase an Ingram spark account from other authors? If yes, how ? And is it possible to publish my books through you? (Like being my publisher and all)

[@AliyuAbdulmalik-zi1cx]

How do you set your line spacing to 1.25 because i cant find the option

[@animekingdom8175]

[@Lolee56]

Is there a video on how to do this on Google docs?

[@IamOrnob]

microsoft office word what version do you use for book formatting ?

[@Growthwithyoungsters-jg3wi]

Kudos to everyone. Please must you add reference to your ebooks? and if yes, is it wise to refrence chat gpt when you have done a whole lot of editing? Is there a limit to the number of books one can publish in a week. It's my first time trying to publish on kdp, is it adviceable to add Ai generated images to my interior manuscript? Your answers are very crucial to me please 🙏

[@theplatontwins]

I need help please. I published my book but the pages don’t start at the same level. I need to fix this, am I able to send it to you and what would you charge?

[@djsalinger9011]

Amazon KDP provides pre-formatted word doc templates for this purpose

[@primepeaks-v8s]

HOW CAN I GO ABOUT IT

[@SabrinaAndersenColoring]

how to save the ebook from ms office ?!

[@TheQuizStream1]

@seanDollwet, when I save as PDF, it shows pages as single portrait page vs your PDF has double page landscapes? why is that? How can I save them like yours mate?

[@aliciahernandez-whyle7137]

Love this video. Do you have any video on copyright?

[@yackablejohnson1485]

Anything you publish in the United States is yours for 70 years past your death. You don't need to file or pay for copyright. You only need to establish the date, and that's valid by simply emailing yourself a final draft.

[@Efest-777]

thank you very useful video

[@SeanDollwet]

You are welcome

[@MaryKayRanger]

Hi Sean is there a reason not to use KDP's pre-formatted "Paperback and Hardcover Manuscript Templates". I stumbled on these on the KDP site.

[@SeanDollwet]

Honestly that must be new because I didn’t know that existed. We always format from scratch like this. If the templates are good then you can definitely use it, but there are bad templates out there.

[@MaryKayRanger]

​@SeanDollwet, I think it's good to know how to format ourselves so that we can adjust any templates. Thanks for this video 💙

[@inegbenoiseogbeifun4640]

Hello Sean, your free training link is not working.

[@SeanDollwet]

how about now?

[@deyanirazerpa2700]

❤

[@Omlittlebuddha]

You do know that KDP has book templates? No need for all this. 😅

[@muaythai7403]

In which section of the kdp website do you find the templates? I was looking for it today and I haven’t founded

[@burntgod7165]

​@muaythai7403 just Google "kdp paperback templates".

[@Shineonrubes]

​@@muaythai7403 Just search manuscript format and put in your book measurements and it'll give you a template.

[@KainBaker]

Where are they?

[@burntgod7165]

@@KainBaker Google "kdp paperback templates" and you'll find them.
