Prepare your files
You need a formatted interior and a cover sized to your trim and page count. Upload a print-ready PDF for paperback and an EPUB for Kindle.
Get the metadata right
Your title, subtitle, description, categories and keywords decide whether readers can find you. Research the top books in your category before you choose.
Price and publish
