Sean Dollwet recently shared how Amazon FBA integrated generative AI. After the recent addition of AI declaration in Amazon KDP, could we be training AI for them? Also, the Kindlepreneur Dave Chesson shared an updated keyword methodology for KDP. And, KDP rolled out a new Reports tab that is REALLY good. All that and more in the self-publishing news this week.

Caimh McDonnell is the internationally bestselling author of the Dublin Trilogy which is set in his hometown. His debut novel A Man with One of Those Faces – a darkly comedic crime thriller – was published in 2016. It went on to spawn the increasingly uncountable Dublin Trilogy (seven and a half books and counting) and the McGarry Stateside series. The books have been ranked #1 in their Amazon categories in the UK, Ireland and the USA, have been translated into several languages and optioned for television. He also writes the critically acclaimed The Stranger Times series under the name of C.K. McDonnell. These books combine his distinctive dark wit with his love of the weird and wonderful to deliver a celebration of how truth really can be stranger than fiction.We had great fun chatting with Caimh and hearing about why he left stand-up comedy for novel writing. He gave some great tips on how to be successful in self-publishing and also explains why he enjoys being both self-published and trad published, and why he went down that route.Links:Buy Caimh's books now!Follow Caimh on Twitter/XVisit Caimh's websitePage One - The Writer's Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.

Independent publishers and author publishers are always seeking effective ways to promote their books, and one great way to do so is through LibraryReads. The Executive Director, Rebecca Vnuk, joins "Inside Independent Publishing (with IBPA)” to explain how LibraryReads creates a widely read list of must-read, new books based on library staff recommendations and how indie publishers can get their books on that list.

In this Self-Publishing Conference Highlight, Jeff Elkins discusses how to emotionally reach your readers. It's not enough to get a reader to pick up our books. We also have to reach them emotionally in order to keep them reading past the first chapter and to inspire them to tell their friends about our stories. The good news is, people are communal in nature. We are hard-wired to connect emotionally with one another, and authors can exploit that wiring with our storytelling by keeping our stories dialogue-centric. By the end of this session, you will learn: how humans connect with one another emotionally and how they can exploit that desire for connection with their writing how to write a dialogue-centric story how to build character partnerships that cause the reader to feel a sense of community This is a post from SelfPubCon (The Self-Publishing Advice Conference), an online author event, run free twice-yearly, in association with the Alliance of Independent Authors.

The road to becoming a Thought Leader is never a straight one.  So going from college basketball coach to book influencer might not seem that odd.   Still, the map to get there is fascinating! Our guest today is Owen Sammarone the Founder and CEO of Unleash the Knowledge, LLC and online, educational community of lifelong learners and avid readers promoting books for authors to reach a larger audience. Having a business based around books you might assume Owen has a background in publishing or marketing, but he was previously a graduate assistance with the UConn men's basketball program.  Owen shares that while he loved basketball his true passion came from the self-development habits of coaches. Owen began to explore what his coach was reading and listening to, then sharing the takeaways he found on Instagram, nurturing a following of self-development junkies.  After Owen was contacted by a heart doctor, seeking to pay for promotion of his new book to Owen's followers he realized Unleash the Knowledge could be more than an social media platform.  IT could become a business model. Through this episode Owen shares his journey growing his platform and finding his footing as well as tips you can use to grow your own social media platform!  Three Key Takeaways: ·         In order to grow a social media platform you need to create a niche that works for your audience and provides value. ·         Certain social media platforms tend to skew towards certain trends or topics.  That doesn't mean you can't grow a successful audience outside those bubbles if you are dedicated to it. ·         Growing a platform requires consistency.  You can't just post when you need something from your audience.

In this episode, our guest Gabriela Pereira will debunk some writing myths about whether you need an MFA to be a good writer and help you develop a stronger foundation for success in your chosen genres.

I finally got to talk to Amanda Goetz, a marketer-turned-full-time-creator, who's generously poured out her wisdom on navigating the creator economy. Amanda's journey from corporate life to the creator economy is filled with valuable lessons about embracing awkward self-promotion, overcoming 'Cringe Valley', and the journey of (maybe?) writing a book. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone looking to carve out a calm niche in a world full of "hustle culture," or just for those curious about the behind-the-scenes of a first-time author getting into book publishing.I didn't set out to chat about writing books, but it was too exciting an opportunity: Amanda announced that she's writing a book! Amanda has walked the tightrope of maintaining authenticity while engaging with the book publishing industry's commercial demands, and she shares this experience with us. We get into the nitty-gritty of dealing with Imposter Syndrome, understanding the angle publishers are looking for, and using hype effectively. It's a deep-dive into the business side of books, the choices of self-publishing or seeking an agent, and the journey towards finding validation in our creative endeavors.But it's not all hustle and bustle; we also touch on the vital importance of rest and self-care in our lives. Amanda talks about how crucial it is for creators to set boundaries on social media, carefully choosing what aspects of their lives to share. We learn about the balance between sharing personal and private moments, with invaluable insights from Amanda's own experience, including the trauma of a social media hack and the importance of diversifying platforms. So, tune in for a candid, comprehensive, and genuinely helpful discussion on thriving in the creator economy.Amanda on Twitter: http://twitter.com/AmandaMGoetz Amanda's Newsletter:https://www.amandagoetz.com/Amanda's Instagram: http://instagram.com/goetzam00:00:01 Finding Balance in the Creator Economy00:11:45 Exploring Niche Markets and Writing Books00:17:40 Imposter Syndrome in the Publishing Business00:25:28 The Importance of Rest and Self00:41:02 Boundaries and Authenticity on Social Media00:49:07 Creator's Social Media Hack LessonsThe blog post: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/amanda-goetz-the-antidote-to-hustle-culture/The podcast episode: https://share.transistor.fm/s/2af3083cThe video: https://youtu.be/DKFBGozqz_cYou'll find my weekly article on my blog: https://thebootstrappedfounder.comPodcast: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/podcastNewsletter: https://thebootstrappedfounder.com/newsletterMy book Zero to Sold: https://zerotosold.com/My book The Embedded Entrepreneur: https://embeddedentrepreneur.com/My course Find Your Following: https://findyourfollowing.comThis episode is sponsored by Acquire.com (00:01) - Finding Balance in the Creator Economy (11:45) - Exploring Niche Markets and Writing Books (17:40) - Imposter Syndrome in the Publishing Business (25:28) - The Importance of Rest and Self-Care (41:02) - Boundaries and Authenticity on Social Media (49:07) - Creator's Social Media Hack Lessons

Based on my experiences of publishing my books and distributing my movies, along with those of other's, I strongly recommend indie artists default to self publishing/distribution. I give my reasons why I say this, and I also share in which instances I'd consider no doing it myself.

Chapter 3 -"Benefits of a More Diverse Workforce" from , "Diverse Medicine."

Welcome to the latest episode of our podcast. Today on the podcast, I have an interview with Mimi Dvorak Smith. Mimi is the author of Too Many Eggs: A Collection of over 800 Egg Recipes and Their Fascinating History. What started as a journey ordering 25 chickens by mail ended up being a life with young chickens laying 2 dozen eggs each day. So Mimi did what cooks do: she started a notebook that contained recipes she could make with her abundance of eggs. When her brother died, her project moved front and center as she hired an editor, received some feedback, and worked through the material, which would ultimately become this old-style recipe book for eggs, complete with recipes, footnotes, side stories, and illustrations (no photos). Mimi now markets her books using postcards and personalized notes to reach independent bookstores, cookbook reviewers, podcasters, and any store that sells chickens or chicken paraphernalia.  if you're a food or nutrition expert looking to write a cookbook and get paid for it but you're unsure where to start, how to spend your time, or what publishers are looking for, we have a free training session that you'll love. This training covers the three common mistakes cookbook writers make, the four steps to make your work appealing to publishers, and the best publishing path to choose if you don't want to spend your time or money on editing, design, and printing. You can access the on-demand training by registering here and within just 45 minutes, you'll learn how to use your time to create a cookbook platform, concept, and proposal that publishers will love.

#713 Hustle culture has tricked many of us into sacrificing our personal lives for financial success. But does building a brand have to be difficult? Instead, what would our journey look like if it were easy? Today's conversation with Deanna Cooper Gillingham will blow your mind! She helps case managers in the healthcare industry grow in their profession through education and training. Her trajectory actually mirrors my own Green Exam Academy story. In fact, the book she self-published to help people in her niche pass an exam has now generated over a million dollars in profit! In this episode, we look at how Deanna pulled it off! She started from scratch with no audience and is now playing in the big leagues while traveling the world full-time. We dissect the essential systems that support her lifestyle, discuss mentorship, events, and public speaking, and get a glimpse at her community of superfans. Enjoy!

As the Self Publishing Show hits its 400th episode, Mark and James take a look at how the industry has changed and what lies in the podcast's future.

Are you hoping to sell your books to libraries? If so, trade reviews are a vital component to enticing libraries to buy your books, and librarians especially value Booklistreviews—the official trade publication of the American Library Association. So IBPA invited Booklist Editor and Publisher George Kendall as a guest on “Inside Independent Publishing (with IBPA)” to discuss how publishers can land a Booklist review; how they can best leverage their review; and much more.PARTICIPANTSGeorge Kendall began as Booklist's Editor & Publisher in 2019 and is now continuing in that role as well as serving as Interim Director of Publishing & Media at the American Library Association (ALA). When not overseeing Booklist business and editorial matters and managing ALA publishing, George might be reading the latest dark but enthralling apocalyptic or dystopian nail-biter, or, on a brighter side, he might be found hanging out with his young daughter, or enjoying his local library, perusing books, toys, and Playaways, or attending story time or “messy art” and “little learners” programs.  George received his MA in Literary Studies from the University of Cape Town in South Africa and studied with J.M. Coetzee, who later when on to win the Nobel Prize in Literature (2003). George began his publishing career in scientific, technical, and medical publishing before moving on to his current role. Prior to publishing, George was a professional classical musician. He will sometimes, though very rarely, dust off his French horn and play a few notes.Independent Book Publishers Association is the largest trade association for independent publishers in the United States. As the IBPA Director of Membership & Member Services, Christopher Locke helps guide the 4,000+ members as they travel along their publishing journeys. As one of his major projects, he oversees the IBPA NetGalley program, which generates buzz and garners reviews for indie publishers' titles. He's also passionate about indie publishing, because he's an author publisher himself, having published two novels so far in his YA trilogy, The Enlightenment Adventures.LINKSTo learn more about the many benefits of becoming a member of Independent Book Publishers Association, visit here https://www.ibpa-online.org/page/membershipLearn how you can submit a book to be reviewed by “Booklist” here: https://www.booklistonline.com/get-reviewedFollow IBPA on:Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/IBPAonlineTwitter – https://twitter.com/ibpaInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/ibpalovesindies/

It's open books all the way with these two TMI queens and their no-holds-barred, hilarious ways. They're the perfect duo to break my 6-month hiatus from the show. What a hoot to be back with three-time New York Times best-selling memoirist Jenny Lawson (Broken, Furiously Happy, and Let's Pretend This Never Happened) and her blogtastic comedic twin, Laura Belgray, joining us here while on book tour for her debut memoir, the national bestseller, Tough Titties: On Living Your Best Life when You're the F-ing Worst.Y'all, this one's a mood booster! And a total love match, as you'll see. If you're in the mood to laugh and shake off the funk from your Doomscrolling, this is the show for you.This may be Laura's first book, but she's one of the most successful career writers I know, starting in TV writing for NBC, HBO, USA, Nick at Night, Nickelodeon, TV Land, VH1, and others. Let's just say the girl gets around. Her blog and newsletters at Talking Shrimp are wildly popular (addictive!), as are her programs, like Inbox Hero and The Copy Cure, Laura's creation with Marie Forleo.Join us as we dig into wisdom on crafting headlines, run-on sentences that hypnotize, avoiding husbands as beta readers, and how having children is like living with an undercover agent tapping all your phones. We also dish on hiding during Zoom calls, editing drunk, getting mailed boxes of dildos in the mail (like you do), blowjobs Laura gave in the early 90s, titties that grow back after reduction surgery, and the ghost living under Jenny's house.I'm so happy you're here. Write on!PS. This convo was such a blast that I RAN back into the recording studio to cover a new topic here—Self-Publishing—with two clients who've made millions via self-publishing (which brought the big publishers to them). You'll want to emulate our strategies, whether you're self-pubbing or not!
