I went on vacation and had about a week without internet this past week. Enjoying things like the sunrise pictured. And because I can’t help myself… I finished a draft of a business fable that’s about 13 years in the making. A part of my editing phase is “reading it out loud” to see how the writing flows. Maybe two or so years ago, ElevenLabs released its ElevenReader app. Have you ever used it? You can upload a doc and have it read by voices that sound like Maya Angelou, Burt Reynolds, or just about any other voice you choose. So I put my writing in a doc, uploaded to ElevenReader, and had my fable read to me by “Archer”. It was great to listen to it without reading it myself. It helped me catch a few things that made more sense on water than back on dry land 🤪. Pretty cool experience!

I decided to make this short video because seasonal coloring books do make money, and in this video I am sharing 5 Halloween Coloring Books that make over $5k in monthly sales, and most are from self-publishers. If you're ready to fast-track your seasonal coloring book creation, I also noticed @Jen Pm has COLORBOT is back on sale. 👉 GO GET COLORBOT TODAY!

I just spent an hour making A+ content for one of my books only to realize I was on my wife's personal account and not mine. Ugh. I have to start all over again! Question for the other authors, when I chose one of the templates, I was hoping for four images across, but when i previewed it, they all appeared single file one after the other. Anyone out there can advise how to add the correct module to the content. I'd love to see samples of yours. If allowed.

You spent all that time writing, publishing, and marketing your book, but have you taken the time to optimize your Amazon Author Page? One thing I see authors overlook is 𝗔𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹, which is a completely FREE tool that allows you to create your own author profile on Amazon. Think about it. Someone discovers your book, gets curious about who wrote it, and clicks on your author name. What are they going to find? A professional-looking author page that builds credibility and showcases your books? Or an incomplete profile with little information? 𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝟱 𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗔𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝗴𝗲! 👇 ✅ 𝟭. 𝗪𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗮 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿 𝗕𝗶𝗼 Your author bio is an opportunity to establish credibility and connect with potential readers. Don't just list your accomplishments. Explain who you are, what you write about, and why readers should trust you. For nonfiction authors, highlight your experience, expertise, or personal connection to your subject. For fiction authors, introduce your writing style, genres, and what readers can expect from your stories. ✅ 𝟮. 𝗨𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝗮 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿 𝗣𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗼 📸 Readers want to connect with the person behind the book! You don't need an expensive professional photoshoot, but you should have a clear, high-quality photo that represents your author brand. If you write under a pen name, consider how you want that author identity represented. ✅ 𝟯. 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 This is a BIG one! Your Author Page is an opportunity to cross-promote your books without spending additional money on advertising. If someone discovers one of your books and enjoys it, you want to make it EASY for them to find your other titles. Log into Author Central and make sure all your published books are properly associated with your author profile. Check your Kindle, paperback, and hardcover editions, too. ✅ 𝟰. 𝗔𝗱𝗱 𝗘𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄𝘀 ⭐ Did you know Amazon Author Central allows you to add editorial reviews to your book listings in the US marketplace?
