How to Publish Your First E-Book on Amazon Kindle

Description

Every teacher I know has a book somewhere on their laptop. It may be a set
of lecture notes refined over fifteen years, a practical guide to research
methodology, a collection of case studies written for students, or a reflection
on a lifetime in the classroom. Most of these books never reach a reader
beyond the teacher's own students, because traditional publishing is slow,
selective and often expensive for an Indian academic.
Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing changes that. It costs nothing to publish,
the book can be live within a few days, and it can be bought in India and in
more than a dozen other Amazon stores around the world. Teachers keep
control of their content and earn a royalty on every copy sold.
This handbook takes you from an idea to a published e-book in nine short
chapters. It also deals honestly with the questions an academic must ask:
will this count for my API score, who owns the content I wrote for my
college, and how do I handle AI tools and copyright? I have written it as I
would explain the process to a colleague over tea.
Pick a topic you know well, set aside a few weekends, and follow the steps.
