I just uploaded a brand-new training on publishing + marketing your book on Amazon KDP — and there are a few BIG updates inside that I’ve been waiting to show you. 👀 I’m also revealing some of the new tools I’ve created to help you actually move forward with your book instead of getting stuck somewhere between the idea, publishing, and marketing stages. 🎁 And YES... there’s a giveaway. You’ll need to watch the training to find out how to enter and what you could win. ⚠️ This training is only staying up for 7 DAYS and will be removed on September 8th. Watch it while you have access. 👇

Share whatever you’re working on or proud of right now. This community is full of creators, authors, and entrepreneurs, and sometimes the best thing we can do is help each other get a little more visibility. 💡 IDEAS ON WHAT YOU COULD SHARE: • Yourself and what you do • Your Skool community • A book you're writing or recently published • A project you're building • A shoutout to another member • A video, post, or resource • Affiliate links (yes, those are allowed) The goal is simple: help our members get seen. Just one request so this stays valuable for everyone. 👉 1 RULE: If you share something, please also leave a thoughtful or helpful comment on someone else’s post. Support goes both ways, and when we all participate, the whole community benefits. Now let’s see what everyone is building 👇

Email marketing can be such a 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹 for authors — and really, for anyone running a business. Think about your next book launch. You’re going to need to do a lot of outreach to drive downloads, sales, reviews, and visibility. One email usually isn’t enough because people get busy and forget. That’s where follow-up emails and automated nurture sequences become so valuable. They can continue reminding people, building relationships, and encouraging subscribers to take action even when you’re not sitting in front of your computer. 🚀One of the next areas I’m focusing on in my own business is tuning up my email marketing. For a while, my email tools were down because of a technical issue that I finally got fixed last weekend. Now that everything is working again, it’s time for me to shift my focus back to optimizing my email strategy. If you’ve been loving what’s happening inside this community, I also want to introduce you to one of the coaches I’ve been working with for quite some time here on Skool: @Mona Weathers Mona recently opened her community, 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀, and she’s taking on new members. What I really appreciate about Mona is that she offers high-level business strategy and coaching at very affordable prices. This Thursday, August 27 at 𝟮:𝟯𝟬 𝗣𝗠 𝗘𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻, Mona is hosting a 𝟵𝟬-𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲 𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝟭𝟬𝟭 𝘄𝗲𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿, and this is one I think is absolutely worth putting on your calendar. You do need to be inside her group to attend, but she currently offers a 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹. I highly recommend using that opportunity to get exposure to her community, attend the training, and experience her teaching style for yourself. Then you’ll understand why she’s one of the 𝗰𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲𝘀 𝗜 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝘂𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵. And just to be transparent, I’ve paid for coaching from some of the biggest names on Skool — people with thousands and thousands of members, Skool Games wins, massive businesses, and $100K+ months...

finally did it, that publishing playbook really helped me, wow My first children’s book is officially coming out on 12 September, and this one carries so much more than a story. It actually started with an idea. That idea led me to build an app for creating children’s storybooks. And from building that app, this book was birthed. That alone makes this moment special, because it reminds me that sometimes one creative idea opens the door to something much bigger than you first imagined. But there is an even deeper meaning behind this book. I teach in Children’s Church, and I have always had a heart for helping children understand God in a way that feels simple, comforting and real. I also want this series to grow into stories that include and speak to children with special educational needs, because every child deserves to see themselves understood, supported and reminded that God deeply loves them. And then there is the most personal part. I wrote this book for my children. 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝘆 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗰𝘆. For the little ones I believe, pray for, and wait for. Even the names in this series are the names I have carried in my heart for my babies, the children I believe will be here in God’s perfect timing. The Bible teaches us to walk by faith and not only by what we can currently see. There are things we pray for, prepare for and speak about in faith before we ever hold them in our hands. This book is part of that for me. I may be publishing a children’s book, but in many ways I am also documenting faith, hope, creativity and legacy. And I am so happy that I finally stopped saying, “One day I will do it,” and actually did it. An idea can become a prompt. A prompt can become a tool. A tool can become a product. A product can become a book. And that book can become part of your legacy. You do not always know where the first idea will lead. You just have to be willing to start. 𝗦𝗼 𝘆𝗲𝘀… 𝟭𝟮 𝗦𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸-𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘆. 🥹📚𝗠𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻’𝘀 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸. A story created from faith. A dream I have carried for years.

I have a 7 volume set of books that are in word at the moment and would like to know if there is an AI that can format (beautify) these in one go rather than doing it manually page by page in canva, as I have done before. The ai I have tried aren’t powerful enough yet. If not, I’m thinking to just publish it as is with a cover page but thought I’d ask here first.
