I still remember the feelings of euphoria and relief when it was finished and offered in the paperback version!
I have mentioned in previous posts on this site that I belong to an affiliate marketing educational platform called Wealthy Affiliate!
I will have been a member of that awesome platform for 5 years very soon! It has been a very worthwhile experience, so far.
The following was the blog post I wrote there on the day I realized paperback publishing success with Amazon’s Kindle Direct Publishing platform:
Finally Fruition From Fantasy Fruits!

Hello everyone here in Wealthy Affiliate!
Just wanted to take a quick minute to announce that the order for all my paperback series books arrived today! They measure 6″ X 9″! The page count for all volumes is 4,277!
I’m ecstatic at how they have turned out! Of course, these are my perusal copies so that if something I don’t particularly like with the cover, etc. is discovered, then I can be correct it on Kindle Direct Publishing before a purchaser buys them.
Plus, this is the first bound and printed set which makes me feel really good!
I couldn’t have done this without everyone’s encouragement here!
I still have the computer print-out manuscripts too, but the printed books are so much nicer to hold and look at!
I just have to get busy on the book website. My quandary, of course is that I am still writing the sequel series and the compendium book to the first one above!
These books were one of the primary reasons–aside from Wealthy Affiliate’s excellent hosting–that I joined Wealthy Affiliate!
I plan to promote my books and related items on the site! (end of post)
What a rush!
I want to use this post to motivate you! If you are an aspiring author or a struggling one, you can do this too! It all boils down to having the proper mindset!
With the proper mindset in place, along with a solid work ethic, there is no way that you can fail!
Think about that long and hard, and KEEP WRITING!
