This is a how to article by Saffron

I have been in the KDP puzzle book self publishing game for a while now and something that I’ve noticed is that it takes a very long time to create certain types of low and medium content books.

They are also the most profitable type of book for people who aren’t talented writers or artists.

I always thought that fleshing out an idea for a should be easy and inexpensive; one should be able to throw out a product in the shortest time possible and with the least financial investment to see if said idea is viable.

This is why I created an amazon ebook puzzle book creation tool aptly named puzzle book creator

With this tool, you’ll be able to create all the puzzlebooks you want in just minutes. The 5 dollars you’ll spend on a full manuscript is nothing compared to the the time and money you’ll save

what problems it solves

If you have tried creating a puzzle book from scratch you’ll know the following:

it is repetitive and mind mumbling. The process entails looking for an online puzzle website that will let you download puzzle images for free and download one image after another. I have yet to find one that gives you unique puzzles in bulk in an image format that you can easily use commercially.

it is time consuming. After downloading the images, you have to look for a PDF editing tool that will allow you to create PDFs from your puzzle images. The process of looking for one, learning how to use it and actually generating a PDF you are comfortable usually takes many hours to days.

It can be expensive. The online puzzle websites and PDF editing tools are usually not free. That means that you may have to pay for them which ads to the cost of creating a puzzle book.

KDP formatting issues: Amazon KDP has strict formatting rules for ebooks; each size of eBook will have different margin, bleed, font requirements. It can be very frustrating getting a puzzle book to get approval in this step.

My puzzle book creator solves the above problems by allowing you to create puzzle books in a few minutes.

These books are perfectly formatted for KDP meaning that instead of spending days creating a puzzle book, you can have one in a few minutes.

How to use

All you have to do is create a puzzle book creator. You will then the ushered to the dashboard that you can either create

  2. an assorted puzzle book from a list of over 20 puzzle types

To create a puzzle book with a single type of puzzle:

DO NOT CLOSE THE TAB AS THE GENERATION IS GOING ON

NB: if you generate a manuscript and it either take too long or it errors out, just regenerate. Errors I have encountered during development have to do with the hosting provider I am using. This app by a solo developer is still in beta for some technical issues are to be expected.

I created this KDP puzzle book creator tool especially for people who want to create an alternative source of income and do not have advanced technical skills or big money to start.

Any questions, suggestions or criticisms are welcome

"-to your success"
