“The best part of self-publishing on KDP? I can respond to market changes and deliver a book to my readers as soon as it's ready, instead of enduring the drawn-out process of traditional publishing. I can tweak my content, cover, and pricing whenever I want. Plus, I get to keep the lion's share of my profits and all my publishing rights.”
KDP author since 2011, author of You Can Run, Hidden, and Garrett's Destiny.
"When I heard the news of Amazon offering serialized stories with Kindle Vella, I knew it would be an excellent opportunity for a book I had in the works titled Wolf, so I jumped right in! Upon release, Wolf hit No. 1 on Kindle Vella. It was a terrific way for me to test the concept with an audience, and the success led me to release it wide, landing on the USA Today best-seller list in 2022."
KDP author since 2013, author of the best-selling Badass: A Navy SEAL Romance (co-written by Linda Barlow) and Ramón and Julieta.
"I reluctantly tried self-publishing, never thinking it would amount to anything. I discovered I was wrong! I love everything about self-publishing! I love the freedom and that I have complete control over every aspect of the work. Though I am now successfully traditionally published, I will always self-publish and am so grateful to KDP for the ability to make a full-time living on my writing."
KDP author since 2010, author of the Gansett Island, Butler Vermont, Treading Water, Miami Nights, and Wild Widows series.
“KDP has changed my life by giving me an outlet for books that traditional publishers weren’t interested in. My readers were definitely interested in them! I’m so grateful for the opportunities afforded by KDP and the career I have as a result of KDP.”
