    Hi, considering writing an ebook for Amz, can you point me to the topics from your playlist which can be helpful? ISBN, do I need my own? Software for Text files? Never done this before and any suggestions will be helpful. TY

      This is the best video to start with for ISBN questions: ua-cam.com/video/3xQRiBMh13I/v-deo.html. I have all questions answered on this channel but I also have several written guides that follow a better order : 1mkwilliams.com/self-publishing-for-the-first-time-author/

    do you know if their audio standards have changed? I am re-uploading a book I got the rights to and suddenly none of the files are being accepted. They're the same files that were for sale until this.

    • @1MKWilliams
      @1MKWilliams  6 місяців тому

      Hmmm I have noticed that some older files needed additional refining so they are likely able to kick more back through their system automatically whereas before some of the human QA let things slip by

    Thanks for the video. In each audio chapter, do you have to literally say Chapter 1 and then the Chapter title? or does ACX add audio based on the headers I see on the screen? Example of what I mean. When recording your audio, will you be the one to say "Chapter 1 - How to Write a best seller."

    My available actions are much more limited than what you're showing here, I only see "move up, move down, move to top, move to bottom, and delete" no "replace" and only "download" for the opening credits. what do I do???

    I have a question. Can I publish my book while waiting for copyright? Say I’m in the process of publishing it with a publish company can I copy right it in that process and also would I mark my book as published or unpublished when it’s throw that process.~I hope you see my comment it’s really important and I will greatly appreciate it thank you

      Yes, you can. I did a whole video on how to apply for copyright registration in the U.S. : ua-cam.com/video/58yLLz57ewI/v-deo.html If you have a publisher however, they should have terms in your contract about who will file for the copyright and when. Check with your ream there.
