    Hey, nice to meet you. New sub. Love your detail and the speed of presentation. I may come back to watch again in terms of front matter requirements.

    Thank you so much. 🥰 This is very helpful. I hope you will create a video showing the best way to use the KDP manuscript templates. I tried to copy and paste my content and it was just a mess. 🥺 Blessings and again thank you. 🙏💓

    I'm literally just here for his thoughts about right ragged versus right justified and line spacing.

    Look. Many of us write and complete novels to be presented to agents etc. thay styke is doubke spaced. So can we discuss reformatting for the fallback of amazon self publishing. A real scew timewisr going a few pages at a time to attempt to reformat at word. Any ideas?

      I self publish. Using styles makes formatting a book quick. I learned that the hard way after my first book.

      @@BlaizeStewart I have to agree. I use styles all the time for publishing and once you get the hang of it, it's quick.

    Dont get the mindset of a nonindent first paragraph. It always looks like an error

      To a professional writer or to a copyeditor or to an agent or to an editor, an *indented* first paragraph always looks like (and is) an error.

      Either clear paragraph breaks or indent, not both.
      In non-fiction don't indent, in fiction indent.
      Non indent because save space. Indent can look better but can also result in streams of white space. Namely indent, right justified, no manual kerning and automatic hyphenation (or no hyphenation) results in rivers of white space.
