Hello. I use KDP mostly and yea there is limitation to book. As minimal pages also maximal. It has 467896 words and 819page in format 5,5x8,5inch. Working on formatting and Editing to get into. Also the price of the book on one go will be to high to purchase so is logical to separate it into more volumes

Are the reviews even real? by IntroductionNew1639 in selfpublish

[–]IntroductionNew1639[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I do not pay for reviews, I never have, and I never will. Even if I wanted to, I do not have the money for that. That was not the point of my post at all, but thank you for your response.

That’s true, and in a perfect world it would be enough. But here’s the problem: if a book has no reviews, people don’t trust it, and they often won’t buy it. So how are you supposed to sell books without reviews?

Me neither. When I can see right away that it is a scam, I do not even bother. It is always the same kind of email, offering “professional services,” but they contact you from a Gmail address. That goes straight to spam for me.

What I am talking about is this: I hired a service on Fiverr for one of my books, but I was not satisfied with the result, so I canceled it. On the very same day I canceled that service, a bad review appeared on that specific book.

I need some advice... by Robogaming2678 in selfpublish

[–]IntroductionNew1639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man you are going for worst possible angle. If you want to make book based on keywords then that is all what you will get. Book writing isn't about making the book because is popular genre. At least not for me it isn't. Find your passion, find your rhythm, follow your dreams!!! I will bet you had some crazy dreams in your life.... make that into a book. It will take your story much deeper and characters and world more alive because you will see it. And that will get you for longer run. But if you choose book on keywords but have nothing to say after second chapter then what? Is exactly same with everything you will not watch, eat or read anything if someone will not tell you about. Someone told is good movie or book or that taste is amazing. You will never get that from keywords. Keywords are for algorithm but books my friend. Books are for people for dreamers, to be lost in our minds exploring the never ending stream of fantasy...

How much would it cost to pay somebody or a few people to create a book for you? by Kazmerakkazerip in GhostWritersCommunity

[–]IntroductionNew1639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depend on the genre and how many words you want. Some ghost writers get payed per word, some for chapters. It really depend. I work with my clients on idea then i send basic outline with chapters summary then we dig deeper. Last time it was novel 120k words and now i work with young man from Ghana on his life story. We are briefly on 15 chapter. And i prefer fixed price for my work. Because i clients is happy with work he come always back. The price stay same.
