The course is good and equipped with lot of information how to become best seller and how to promote your book. i wish that intsructor have provide one copy of Trade application form. and more information how to published and make book available in other countries with different retailers and how to publish book in different languages internationally as China is now the biggest consumer market. I even want to know ho to be a best selling author in new york times which was not included in a course. Moreover In section 2 lecture 4 video did not work, it need to be remove or fix it. Overall course is good and i recommend this course if you are interested to publish your book and how you want to be best seller.

This is a very helpful course for first time authors trying to decide between self-publishing and contracting with another publisher. This course has motivated me to improve the quality of my book and book cover, and has enlightened me on ways to market my book. I already have a website and social media connections; however, I am now ready to try a YouTube video! The education and direction for Amazon and Kindle sales is outstanding. There were points in the lesson when I could not hear the instructor as clearly as other times; however, he was articulate. I also wanted to see what was written on his easel notes more often, as that would have compensated for the words I missed. The accent and language differences were only minimal challenges. The instructor did a great job!
