Helpful.

As I read through this book, I noticed some periods missing. I found some of the information helpful, but I already knew about sales ranking, Kindle countdowns, permafree, and more. I like the short length of this book, as I highlighted a lot of things while going through it. It's good.

Again, this is a book that's for those interested in learning to write-to-market, and only gives beginner/basic advice to follow. There are no examples to show and nothing other than the other simular-formula books to show that the author can back up what he claims.

Very informative

The book mentioned Pareto principal and stressed the importance of setting deadlines. Even though I don't particularly have an interest in writing books the information provided by the author can easily apply to other trades.

Short and sweet but to the point.

This book is short but does give some great tips and advice. Some things I knew, some I didn't but sometimes it's good to refresh and also learn new things about writing and self publishing.

Plenty of hands-on tips on how to make money from writing Kindle books; all on 26 pages so don't expect any great details but rather some general pointers.

A few of the ideas include;
Write about what interests you
Use a short title, with a longer subtitle to capture keywords used by those searching on Amazon
Set the price low to improve seller rank and search result listings
Chase reviews as these will help the book rank higher
Use the promotion opportunities provided by Amazon KDP

Foster has a range of books available, some of them for free so download them to get a better idea of his style and knowledge.

I rate this book 2.5/5.

I have to review this book from two view points. Firstly, the book didn't offer me anything I didn't already know, but would probably help out a new writer with zero knowledge of self publishing.
Secondly, I have read a good few of the books this author has released, and the information is recycled somewhat from book to book. All that seems different is the titles.
These books are not helpful for writers with a general knowledge of self publishing, and the content isn't much varied, but on the other hand, newbies might benefit from them.
