I watched many other videos that are all tutorials on how to go through the publishing process on KDP and this is by far the one that explains the most. It's very straight forward and your way of explaining this makes sense.

[jdgameolorian]

These have been the best 27 minutes of my entire life, thank you so much.
Before watching, I couldn’t make heads or tails of self-publishing, but that all changed thanks to you, so thank you thank you thank soo much 😅

[bankolez.o_writes]

Hi. I am currently self publishing my first novel. Your videos have been really helpful 😍

[littletodger]

Absolutely top tutorial. Your generosity creates such good karma. My book is going up on KDP and Draft to Digital next week, so, for this author, this is a crackerjack tutorial and so timely. Much gratitude.

Very useful, but definitely a video to watch in stages unless you want to have your coffeemaker close to hand so you can continuously boost your caffeine with an intravenous drip attachment!.
Lots of concentration is needed. There is so much info delivered quickly, sequentially andcoherently for you to absorb 'on the go' unless you have a brain and memory the size of a planet.
I suggest you bookmark (or download) this video AND that you take notes. (Thank heavens for the 'pause' function).
Bethany covers everything in such detail that I filled 2 sides of A4 notepaper with info from her walkthroughs of e-book and paperback uploading.
She includes examples of every stage of the process.
Thanks for taking the time to do all this . . . I'm now off to wait for the caffeine to subside!

Wonderfully concise and helpful (rare in ta time of careless misinformation). Takes time to review production shots for value and you did it! Thank you!

[abdallah_agha]

Thank you from the bottom of my heart <3, Finally i published my first book on amazon kindle

[davefisher]

This was excellent. I have previously published 5 ebooks but never a print copy. With the wonderful of your video I'm going to publish a print copy! Thank you so much!! 😊

[HanaEnyde]

What perfect timing LOL! I was just looking through YouTube for information on kindle publishing for ebooks & paperbacks and a notification for your video came up!!! Immediately clicked! Love the step-by-step walkthrough. Your videos have always been so incredibly helpful - honest, clear and detailed. I’ve been binge watching all of them since I’ve made the decision earlier this month to write more seriously and to plan a publishing timeline. Thank you so much for all your great advice, Bethany! You’re awesome and always very encouraging 💖

[samuelbullock]

Such great information that you have displayed here, publishing with KDP Kindle Direct. Thanks

[secretlyadragon]

Thanks for doing this video Bethany. Honestly, we know Amazon has a whole Help section but it can feel a little overwhelming sometimes to go through. It's nice to have a straightforward video just showing the things you need to focus on to upload your manuscript. Plain and simple, and like you said if we want to learn more about extra things we can browse their videos. Again thank you.

[nickippolito]

What a great tutorial! You are clear, concise, and right off the top! Loved it. I've completed what I hope is a paperback from the title page through to and including a back cover. I now need a book cover, obtain an ISBN Number, determine a book price, obtain a Bar Code, submit to Amazon for KDP Direct Publishing. Everything you clearly described but I have writers fright and just can't move forward. I'll definitely be watching this video for a few more days! Maybe then ...

[mikecook_author]

Nice tutorial. The interface has changed slightly since I published my first book last year. One thing did not realize was Amazon contacts KDP authors via the registered email. If KDP has any questions (which delay publication) it will be communicated via email.

[najeeamurray]

Thanks so much for taking us through the process step by step. I've published with kdp before, but with little research, so now I feel way more prepared!

[amylarry]

Thanks for this video! I'm uploading my first book to KDP. I've watched this in full and I keep rewatching parts as I do the next step.

[richardbates]

Thank you! I love you!!! This was the best video I have ever watched for instructing for anything. You are the best and now you will be my best friend for publishing!!!

[msmelochi]

Firat time publisher here. This video was very helpful, thank you.

[sanityone]

Wow...really nice. Thanks for sharing your experience with KDP. I should have my book ready for publication this year...hopefully.

[AlleSixx]

This is brilliant. I just finished my first Adult Romance Novel and I was feeling so lost because UK is so much different than America when it comes to publishing options. I was getting frustrated but I believe this would be the easiest option to start with and see how it goes! Thank you!

[TheTexasLass]

I've finished a novella recently that I think might actually stand a chance being published...so needless to say I ran straight here to see what the next step was, lol. Thank you for being so clear and concise with this process!
