Self Publishing On Amazon

[Theblip]

Anyone here self published a book through Amazon / KDP, and if so any tips or warnings?

If I were able to write a book and wanted to sell in ebook format, I would plan to write a series.  Put the first book up for sale and if it generated some positive reviews, put the whole series up and offer the first book for free.  If people get hooked, they will buy the rest.

What is worrying you?

Was it DTC who has self-published on Amazon - a book chronicling his mother's Alzheimers?

Barry1010, that sounds like a good plan and I may well do that in due course.  But right now I'm looking for people's experiences of self-publishing, including through Amazon

Leave a FAO for DTCwordfan, TheBlip, for 'twas indeed he who has penned a book on Kindle.

Being the helpful soul he is, i'm sure he will respond.

If I ever finish the book I'm writing, I'll publish it on Amazon under a pseudonym.  If you're thinking of doing the same, this might help:
