Write An Amazon Kindle Ebook
by Paul Hines LiveGood Health And Wellness
Do you want to profit from the popularity of the Amazon Kindle? This electronic book reader is a hit! For you, this means a
good potential to make money, but how? There are a number of ways to profit from the Amazon Kindle, such as working as a
paid affiliate. If you are an author, even just a web author, you can profit from the popularity of the Kindle by using your
talent. You can write an e-book and sell it as a Kindle Book.
So, how do you get started?
1 – Decide on a Category
To write a how-to e-book, choose a category. It is easier to write on interesting topics. Take a passion of yours and
profit from it. Do you like to build dollhouses? Write a how-to guide on doing so. With how-to guides, your options are
virtually unlimited. Popular books include those that show readers how to save money, combat global warming, make money, and
do home improvement projects.
2 – Create an Outline
To increase productivity and reduce writer’s block, write an outline. Do this by hand or on the computer. Write what you
want to include in your e-book. If you want to show readers how to replace a kitchen countertop, your sections can include
needed tools, tips for buying equipment, preparation, the replacement process, and cleaning tips.
3 – Open a Microsoft Word Document
All e-books should be composed in Microsoft Word. This program makes it easy to catch spelling and grammar errors, as well
as monitor word count.
4 – Write the Introduction
Your e-book introduction should be at least two paragraphs. Start with a catchy phrase. For an e-book instructing readers
on how to replace their kitchen countertop, your introduction can say “Are you tired of looking at an old, dreary kitchen
counter? Don’t wait any longer.”
State the point of your e-book, which may be showing readers how to replace their kitchen countertop. Mention how your e-
book can help them accomplish their goal. Then, thank them for joining you on the journey.
5 – Write the Chapters
How-to books are shorter than novels. You shouldn’t focus on word count or page length. Instead, just write until all
points are made. With that said, each chapter should be at least three pages long. Take each of your sections from your
outline and describe them in great detail.
6 – Write the Conclusion
For the conclusion of your e-book, restate your main points. Unlike the introduction, the conclusion can be as short as one
paragraph or even once sentence.
7 – Proofread and Edit
As previously stated, Microsoft Word has many helpful tools for writers. These tools are not 100% accurate. For that
reason, do not rely on them alone. Proofread and edit your e-book.
8 – Proofread and Edit Again
The importance of a well-written and edited e-book cannot be stressed enough. When selling on Amazon.com, all products are
subject to reviews. Make sure yours are positive by eliminating grammar errors. So, proofread and edit your book multiple
times before proceeding.
The above mentioned steps allow you to compose an e-book in Microsoft Word. To make your e-book compatible with the Amazon
Kindle, you must visit Amazon’s digital text platform. This begins the selling process and converts your Microsoft Word
document into digital text. After following the step-by-step guide, your e-book will be uploaded to the Amazon Kindle Store
in around 24 hours.
