Good Read

loved some of the tools and websites to use for writing/editing.

Tips on future changes to the market are reasonable to consider.

I dislike the idea of putting out a lot of work and continually editing, the work you do submit should be a finished product. I don't expect someone to purchase half of a car, why should they purchase a book that isn't properly finished. (Not every error will be found, but the majority).

Some useful ideas. Worth reading as log as you lower your expectations. Meaning author wastes a lot of pages trying to pull off cocky funny. A lot is vague information with the gist of an idea but no detail on how to do it. With the title you'd assume it was about publishing information, but a great deal is about writing not publishing. Guess that shows the title your book for search engine results rather than content. Still it had some ideas I will try.

Another Amazon freebie. I'm not sure I actually learned anything from this book, but parts of it were hilarious, and it's interesting to read someone else's experience.

Good, interesting read

I like it, read many valuable tips related to KDP publishing.
All newcomers to KDP can learn something from this book.
