[PAST EVENT] CreateSpace to KDP Webinar with Ruth Schwartz

October 15, 2018 by Becky Parker Geist Leave a Comment

Are you confused and concerned about moving your books from CreateSpace to KDP?

It can be very simple, and as some people have found, there can be some serious challenges. For some, their books just disappeared into the ether, for others their books wound up in one KDP account, but their paperback from CreateSpace went to another account.

 

There ARE some things for you to know and do BEFORE you move your books to CreateSpace. This is an online webinar format, where you can get all of your questions answered so you can move forward moving your books from CreateSpace to KDP with confidence.

This webinar will be delivered via Zoom where there will be about 15 minutes of initial content and then we will open the “floor” to questions, which you can post via the Chat window. Further instructions will be sent with your unique link to the Zoom event once we receive your webinar registration and payment.

We will record the session, and anyone who pre-registers will get access to the recording as soon as we have it available.
