My Draft2Digital Print Book Process

I am now in the beta testing of adding my print pdf files to D2D for distribution to Ingram Spark and Amazon.

The advantages are:
I can use D2D free ISBNs for my print books.
I don’t have deal with Amazon help desk.
I am not subject to any access decisions Amazon insist on like giving them my mobile phone number.
My print books are now in Ingram Spark as well as Amazon.

Adding POD Books Via D2D

I hope you are all keeping safe during the virus rampage and writing many stories.

I have been been accepted into Draft2Digital Beta testing of uploading print books and have been working on getting my print books back up at Amazon and IngramSpark. The process is getting easier each time I upload another interior or cover file. I just have to check that the size of the cover including the spine measurements in inches also equates to the correct pixel width and height before uploading.

So far, I have my Creating Print On Demand Interiors and Covers using Scribus 1.4.1 back up on Amazon as a print book and added the link to my book page on Tift Publishing.com. Click on the image in the right hand column to go to the Tift Publishing book page.

I will check out the IngramSpark links next.

Then, I will work through my Tracker series to get the print books back up selling, and slowly work through all the back list, each afternoon leaving the mornings for writing, etc .

I also played in Photoshop creating the wings for a fairy to put on the cover of a short story I wrote months ago. Will work on the background next.

Please all take care and stay safe away from the virus. And keep writing.
