Generate a cover for the book that anonymous would write in their biography about me/[YOUR NAME]. 🖖🏽 @Krista Brea inspired me for this one. 🌎✌🏽🕊🎶

OMG I finally got a copy of my book. Thanks @Krista Brea for the push to have me put it in paperback. There is nothing like holding your creation in your hands. I can’t wait to read it (again LMAO) If you have created an Amazon book get it in paperback and make sure to get a copy for yourself. I’m so excited I could cry 😍

One of the biggest mistakes I see authors make is waiting until after their book is published to build a community. Instead, create your Skool community before you hit publish. Why? Because you can add a simple QR code inside your book that invites every reader to join your community. Think about it—every copy you sell becomes an opportunity to turn a random reader into someone you can continue to help, connect with, and build a relationship with long after they finish the last page. Without a community, your reader buys the book... and that's often where the relationship ends. With a community, your book becomes the beginning of the journey. If you wait until later, you'll have to go back, update your manuscript, upload a new version, and republish it. Is it possible? Absolutely. But it's one more task that usually gets pushed to the bottom of the to-do list, and many authors never get around to it. Future-proof your book from day one. ✅ Create your community. ✅ Generate your QR code. ✅ Add it to your book before you publish. Your future readers—and your future business—will thank you. 👉 START YOUR COMMUNITY FOR ONLY $9

If you already have a book published on Amazon KDP, don't overlook audiobooks. Audiobooks can become an additional income stream from a book you've already created. The best part? You typically aren't running separate ads specifically for the audiobook. If someone discovers your paperback, ebook, or hardcover and sees an audiobook option available, that's another opportunity for a sale. So why do so many authors skip audiobooks? Usually, it's because they assume producing one will cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars upfront. But what if I told you there's another option? You may be able to work with a narrator using a Royalty Share agreement. If you choose Audible's exclusive distribution option, the royalties can be split between you and the narrator. Instead of paying a large upfront production fee, both parties share in the success of the audiobook. It's a win-win: the narrator gets compensated through future sales, and you can get your audiobook produced with little or no upfront cost. Want to learn more about audiobooks and how to get started?
