Self-Publishing Authors: Get help merging your CreateSpace and KDP Amazon publishing accounts

Here is an article from an indie author’s perspective about the impact of the recent merger of Amazon’s CreateSpace print-on-demand business with it’s KDP Kindle eBook business on self publishers that I recommend reading.

If you are a self publishing author with CreateSpace you will have gotten instructions to merge your CreateSpace account with a KDP Amazon account. In general this process is straight forward. However, if you published your print books in a CreateSpace account and have a separate KDP account with a different email address, since both of these services are actually Amazon businesses the recent merger of CreateSpace with KDP may have inadvertently put you in the position of having your print version and your eBook version in two different KDP accounts. In order to link your print-on-demand book and your Kindle eBook of the same title, they need to be in the same account (i.e., viewable in the same KDP dashboard).

For help merging your publishing accounts, work with KDP’s help desk, or contact info@healingtimebooks.com.  We make it an easy and pain free process.

“Writing a book can be an arduous process and one that is done thousands of times over with a fair amount of help available. But, when it comes to editing, preparing and packaging your book there was little help I could find. Then Katharina appeared, she was a dream come true.  Here was someone who knew the ins and outs of publishing, she did it for her own books and was willing to help me with my several books. Her talent to help in the choice of everything from sentence structure, color of ink, to the cover page for the book was phenomenal. I would not consider giving my manuscripts to anyone else. She’s the best!!!”

21 Meditations From ‘Healing With Color’ by Tara Channel Katharina Notarianni

Tara Channel Katharina Notarianni - Healing with Color - - 21 day meditation processLooking for a new meditative process to make a difference in your life? ‘Healing with Color’ features a 21-day process, whereby you meditatively experience one specific color each day following guidance given by Tara:

“…With each color we explore, these twenty-one colors, we will express twenty-one versions of our self, each one working in a particular manner, each one having a particular impact on Soul and Spirit. And so you might say, it is a metaphor for how each of you are in your world. You are a unique expression. You will never be repeated, though you may feel as though you have taken on so much of your family, perhaps your mother or your father. On your journey you do discover that you are indeed a unique expression. And more and more you reveal to yourself your True Self. It becomes a quest, a revealing of the mysterious. For though you see many similarities between you and other people in your reality, once you discover what is the same about you, you are quick to go on to what is unique about “me.” And that is part of your destiny: to express and celebrate You, your uniqueness. It is a never ending journey. There is always more of you to reveal. For as you discover more of who you truly are, you do evolve. It changes you each time you discover something new.”

‘Noname’ by Richard C Richards

‘Noname’

The moon sits on the owl’s shoulder.

The moon sits on the mountain’s shoulder

On this most unnatural night

As I feel my way among the images.

The owl is made of fire,

There is fire inside the owl,

His feathers sparkle with it.

There is fire within the tree.

The images blur and coalesce

With moon, owl and fire

Until there is nothing,

No image at all.

In the dark clear light of blankness

Only the sound of the owl: When?

When will the images coalesce?

Being a seer with no sight,

Being a god with no right,

Being a bird with no flight

Is damned hard work.

If I had known it was like this

I wouldn’t have gotten into the racket.

Richard C. Richards, circa 1970

‘The Question’ from Poetry MS Volume 1 by E. Reenah McGill

‘The Question’

How long do you run the eternal mile?

Do you reach an end?

Is every step a cry against the sky?

Do you reach an end?

Can you reach out, run without a doubt?

Do you reach an end?

Is every post a sign to run and run anow?

Do you reach an end?

Can daisies hold you?

Do birds enfold you?

Even now do you know the end?

Achieve Your Health Goals in 2018 with “Eat Right, Lose Weight”

[amazon_link asins=’B0070CJLAQ’ template=’ProductAd’ store=’htb-bookstore-20′ marketplace=’US’ link_id=’2176f6ca-e45f-11e7-a1d0-4d99bf7cf630′]

Eat Right Lose Weight – Introducing The 5 Element Nutrition and Hypnosis System

“Learning what to eat to be healthy with a trim body and lots of energy has been a pursuit of mine for a long time with limited success. Then I discovered while studying and practicing Oriental Medicine that each person falls into one of five major groups. With this knowledge I found a new but ancient method to eat foods which are good for me physically, mentally and spiritually. To that I combined this information into a system that could help anyone who wanted to achieve the same goals we all want for a lean, trim body that easily carries us through the day. I have tested it with unlimited numbers of people and it worked. Then I added hypnosis based on my work with Dr. Marianne Zaugg and together we created this system to help you achieve the healthy weight goals of our clients. It has been a wonderful, fulfilling journey and I hope you’ll take the journey also.” — Reverend Dr. E. Reenah McGill, LAc, DOM

Looking for a unique gift for your child? Consider Marilyn Marlow’s ‘Love and Light’

Looking for a unique gift for your child? Consider Marilyn Marlow’s ‘Love and Light’ (English with Spanish) or ‘Amor y Luz’ (Spanish with English), a colorful and inspirational myth that ignites the imagination and warms the heart, available through Amazon.

 

“Marilyn always knew she would be a teacher. What she didn’t anticipate was the day the recruiter came into her college art class. Four days after graduation she left for Guatemala, Central America as a Peace Corps Volunteer where she learned Spanish and worked with Mayan artists for the next two years. ‘Amor y Luz: Un Mito de la Creación’ (Spanish Edition) / ‘Love and Light ~  A Creation Myth’ (English Edition), handwritten nearly forty years ago, was inspired by experiences living close to the land in the highlands of Guatemala. Perhaps too, it was a way to discover a personal connection with our privileged heritage of living on this planet.”
