Indie authors should be aware that Amazon KDP does not charge you for updating your ebook or paperback files, no matter how often you do them.
So....
If you don't mind staggering your release, if you intend to maximize your reach with other platforms like Ingram and Draft2Digital, both of those platforms charge you either $25 per update after 60 days, or $25 per second update every 90 days.
You can burn through all your little mistakes on KDP first before launching on other platforms.
Things like, somebody found a typo 3 months after you publish. You can't help that, and it might be a significant typo, like a character's name. If you're on Ingram, that's $25 you might not have. Or, the bleed on your cover art was fine a while ago, but now you'd really like it fixed. Or, you discovered a plot hole that can be filled by changing just one sentence. Or you forgot a detail on your copyright page, or you're not happy with your 'about the author' page, or you've got multiple fixes that you don't expect to come up, and have to keep shelling out the cash.
Hopefully by your second book you've got things down pat and all organized but for your first go 'round, KDP is the most forgiving platform out there, I think.
If you're down for either just Amazon, or staggered releases, of course. Some things you just won't notice or realize until the book is out, it's in your hands, and people are reading it.
I didn't intend to be working with D2D for my first book, but man am I glad that I had all my stumbles before being able to give D2D a polished version of the files, otherwise I'd be at least $100 out. I absolutely waited until I was certain before giving Ingram my files, beacuse I knew about that fee and still I have to shell out cash to fix mistakes with them.
Being an indie author is expensive, but patching tiny errors doesn't have to be part of your budget.

Logged into my KDP today to check my stats and saw a lot of people have been reading my book this month
And I know this might not seem like that high of a number when compared to some but for my little steamy novella this is a lot, at least I feel like it is, it makes me happy

I'm a week late in noticing the email, but Kindle print/Amazon is increasing the print cost of paperbacks on June 20, 2023.
In fairness, they haven't done a lot of the serious price hiking other printers have done over the last few years -- Ingram Spark increased their print costs 3x since Phangs came out 2.5 years ago.
But it does mean I may need to adjust prices again or risk earning negative money on print costs in places like Australia and Canada.
I hate it here* 🙃

Elena Martínez, a renowned geneticist, has dedicated her life to deciphering the hidden mysteries within human DNA. But when she discovers a genetic sequence that doesn’t match any known database, her research pulls her into an enigma far deeper than she ever imagined. As her life and mind become entwined with ancient symbols, disturbing dreams, and buried secrets, Elena confronts a terrifying truth: the genetic code may be the key to realities that defy logic and human understanding.
Accompanied by Daniel, a neuroscientist marked by his obsession with control, and a team of researchers, Elena finds herself caught in a web of global conspiracies, clandestine genetic manipulations, and mysteries that could alter the fate of humanity. As the boundaries between what is real and what is possible blur, Elena must decide how far she is willing to go to uncover the truth... and what she is willing to sacrifice in the process.
A novel that explores science, mystery, and the choices that define us in a universe filled with secrets. Perfect for readers who enjoy scientific thrillers and philosophical science fiction.

It is here! Book 13 of "The Little Cop" is out!
This book series tells us the story about Abel, a little who wants to break free of how he had been raised to hate his own designation. Being a cop is for him a way to proof that he is better than what they think about him.
Even so, he still keeps his designation as a little a secret, his head still filled with the prejudices of his parents. It is even worse because out of all the headspaces he could have had, he’s a baby.
But then there is Jack, a detective, who happens to be a caregiver. The man runs into Abel one day, and the instant connection they shared made it possible for him to stand at Abel’s side while the little learns to accept himself more and more.
The journey continues and they meet more people who they share connections with.
Mick and Adrian, Abel’s best friends, whom will stand by his side, no matter what kind of silly arguments they may have.
James, or rather Jamie, Jack’s big brother, whose handicap Jack blames himself for, not matter how many times Jamie says it isn’t so.
Prosecutor Graham, who is always torn between being amused or exasperated at Jack’s antics at work, the detective not always sticking to all the rules.
Luke, a tall and strong caregiver who is desperately in search of his own little, and when Abel starts going to the same gym as him, is immediately pulled in by the little.
Lance, a colleague from Jack with Cindy as his little, with whom Abel shares several playdates.
Danny, the only other little at Abel’s work, and who acts a bit like a big brother for Abel.
And many more.

The Bonds That Bind Us
I started this book in late 2016/early 2017, and it has been through so many iterations before finally becoming what it is now.
When I first published this book in 2018, it was impulsive and unfinished; I was just so excited to have written a novel people might buy.
Now, I'm at a stage in life where this story (all three parts of it) have helped me heal so much of my own trauma and hurts, and I want it to do the same for others.
For everyone who doesn't have a family, who has found family, who are dealing with trauma and the shitty things life has to throw at us.
To the survivors and the ones who refused to give up. The ones who shouted fuck you to the people who told them they'd never amount to anything.
Whether you pay for this story or get the free, kindle unlimited version, I want to thank you for giving it a chance, and for supporting me. <3

My favorite pages from my first self-published children's book! It's about a mouse who has lost his house, because he can't see in the dark, but this sheep helps him by using her own creative thinking!
If you're interested in reading, it's on Amazon

Kindle keywords allow your book to be discovered by hungry shoppers on the world's largest book market, Amazon, even while you sleep.
They help make it so that your book gets discovered without having to do major marketing. Plain and simple, they are important.
So, if you have an incredible book, but don’t know how to get it in front of the right readers, then THIS is the article for you.
Extra: There is a tool that will help you do all of this more efficiently, but in this article I'll show you how to do it manually.
