Feedback welcome since I don't know all of those platforms myself.

Remember to focus on your net revenue – what you actually take home after all the fees. What are your favourite royalty resources? #SelfPublishing #Royalties #KDP #IngramSpark #WritingCommunity

Has anyone else noticed a dip in KDP Print quality? I'm seeing more authors move to IngramSpark for better consistency. It's frustrating when print issues affect your book's presentation. What are your experiences with different print-on-demand services? #KDPPrint #SelfPublishing #IngramSpark #PrintOnDemand

#Authors, I don't know if Ingram Spark's opt out of them selling your paperback's to ai companies form was shared on here in early Feb, so I'm posting it now, having come across it on discord again.

(No, it doesn't specify 'gen ai' or 'LLMs', the form just says 'ai.')

And yes, this impacts you if you distribute your books directly with Ingram Spark, or via KDP expanded distribution, or Draft to Digital (print books).

Does anyone know what IngramSpark's planned "Cover generator" might involve?

I'm sitting here praying it doesn't involve AI cover art generation and that I'll have to pull my books from them in protest.
