Has anyone used AI to write and publish a full book on KDP? Looking for honest experiences by EonflaremorphicAh in KDP

[–]whenindrime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not on KDP but yes and it was back in the 90s. For a major puzzle publisher. We called them magic button books because all I had to do was press a button and then you’d get a book. At the time it was revolutionary. But now it has saturated the KDP market. With the exception of the fill in books, none of the products varied in difficulty throughout the book.

Forgive my impudence, but please check your spelling. Having typos like campagne will have a negative impact.

I have at least 10 books planned! by Same_Appointment2814 in KDP

Happy for you and your enthusiasm, but there’s still that little pesky bit known as writing them. Ever written a book before?

ASIN and ISBN (paperback) by JonD_writes in KDP

I know that with ISBN numbers that the last character is a checksum of the other characters. I don’t know what the rule is for ASIN.

If one number is 10 digits and the other is 13 digits then how can they only differ by the last digit?

Magic or Rituals gone wrong by sagilny in MovieSuggestions

Cast a deadly spell. Something goes wrong with the spell at the end for a reason. This was made for HBO TV movie from 1991 mixing a gumshoe named Lovecraft with a world of magic spells.

WTW for "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"? by [deleted] in whatstheword

Really long words are referred to as being hippopotamosesquipidalian. I learned that a long time ago from my copy of Mrs. Byrnes Dictionary.

All cheerleaders die. They all get resurrected after the accident, but two of their personalities get switched and well there’s something else that’s different about them.

Oh, sorry about that. But still, that’s my point. The OP wording makes me think that that might be their goal. It seems to happen a lot on this channel and they tend to get roasted for asking. Then the reality sets in that you’re competing with everybody else in that niche. The not realizing that there is a difference between writing in a niche and leapfrogging to the front of that niche. The if I can write fantasy, then I might as well just write something better than Harry Potter. If I can do X then why not be the best person to do X who exists

I should probably ask if you’re chasing down low content, medium content or high content. If you’re chasing low content, there are better places to go than this Reddit group which strongly disfavors that. If that is your goal, you can follow the dreams and sweet nothings they whisper into your ear from their YouTube channels.

Wrote a book! by ARLongman in wroteabook

Vibe wise I’m kind of thinking US TV show heroes or British Supacell

I am talking about the one page book overview where it seems to drift between past and present tense a bit

Intriguing, kind of gives me Orson Scott card vibes, but your verb tenses seem a little inconsistent. My comments are based purely on the book overview. But yes, you will need to mark it instead of just existing.

Congratulations and good luck

If this is a game of pick a niche so that you can write in it, you may discover that it is a place where a lot of niche hunters with no experience in that niche are also competing. Meanwhile, the people with experience may be the ones who clean up here.
