    Description

    My passion is helping other writers help themselves by sharing the knowledge I have gained in the publishing industry.

    There's room for all of us.

    My name is Mallory Cywinski. I’m a published author, an editor, a publisher, a graphic designer, a social media personality, and a Mom. I have my B.S. from Penn State University and I am a certified editor and proofreader. I also own a small independent publishing company through which I've done the work to get books edited, formatted, and listed for sale, climbing the new release lists on major websites.

    I want to teach new and aspiring authors how to self-publish and gain the confidence to do so. You can do this yourself, without waiting for literary agents or traditional publishing houses to tell you you're "good enough."


    This course is a step-by-step tutorial on how to use Amazon's self-publishing platform, Amazon KDP, to publish your paperback book listing.


    Come with me while we use your formatted book manuscript and the Amazon KDP Dashboard to create a LIVE listing on Amazon, ready for purchase by millions of readers worldwide.

    We will go step-by-step through each category of creating a listing, what terms and fields mean, how they affect your listing's SEO, tips to avoid search engine trouble, and practical advice on creating a clean listing for your book baby. At the conclusion of this course, you will be an officially published author with a live book listing, ready to promote your book and watch royalties start streaming in.


    You will learn:


    • An overview of self-publishing platform options and why KDP is likely right for you

    • Crucial information about ISBNs and Copyright

    • Best practices in choosing Categories & Keywords for maximum discoverability

    • How to write your book description and Elevator Pitch

    • How to Avoid the Amazon Adult Dungeon (& advice on how to get out if need be)

    • How to use the KDP Previewer to ensure your book looks just as you always dreamed it would

    • An Overview of Free & Easy Promotion tactics

    • To feel the confidence to hit "Publish" and start tracking hard-earned Profits


    This course is all that lies between you and being a Published Author. Let's dive in!
