Luckily if you are publishing on Kindle there is an easy way to create your eBook in just a few simple steps

  1. You need a formatted PDF.
  2. Download Kindle Create.

If you haven’t gotten to this step I’ve got videos to get you there!

You can follow this video guide, or the steps below.

  1. Click “Create New”
  2. Click “Kids” for reflowable OR “Print Replica” for a fixed layout.
  3. Export your .KPF file
  4. Upload it to KDP!

And that’s it. Really.
