Hi Jenny, I have used 3 pen names on my author central account. Can you just remind us what we do it we are creating more pen names do we open another author central account and how does that work? Thank you
Author central support will add 6 more names before you need to open a new author central account with a different emails address
Thanks Jenny, I didn't know that. I can only have three on the drop down so do we have to contact them to add more?@@JennyHansenLane
How did you come up with 498 books in two years? That's 20 books a month, each month, for two years. Five books a week.
Prompted journals, planners, workbooks, notebooks, coloring books.
@@JennyHansenLane How many years did it take, really, to publish that many books? Did you purchase books designed from others who decided to go out of business? Is there a place to make such purchases? When someone quits, what happens to their books? I find it difficult to comprehend almost 500 books in two years. Even easy to publish journals take at least a day. I'm not not trying to be snotty about it, I'm just curious. Transparency is important, I think, and I'm just looking to learn from you. I'm on track to publish 70 books my first year. I began in March. I know how hard it is. Maybe you hired a team to churn them out?
@@aikenpublishing thanks. This is all done in 2 years. I have 687 TH-cam videos. I have 700 podcast episodes. I do reps every single day.
I was determined to figure it out. Sometimes I did 10-20 books a day. That’s before they changed the 3 books a day rule. When you have an interior for a journal or planner, it’s much easier to create new covers. I’m a content creator so I put it the reps all the time.
@@JennyHansenLane I see. Thanks. I published 10 compositional notebooks in a couple of days, so that's doable. But the profit margins on low content books is so low, I couldn't see how running ads was possible. I can churn out a medium content coloring book in two to three days. I do all the designs myself in Photoshop and inDesign. So my expenses are low. I've published 35 medium books in 6 months. I suppose if I did a bunch of journals or notebooks, just change the covers, I could get up to 500 books in two years.
@@aikenpublishing thinking about prompted journals that are hardcover too. Once I found my niche, that’s all I publish in.
Hi I tried publishing my book up under the name EJ’S Puzzles i put that in the author name slot and kdp sent it back saying the contributors to the book may cause confusion for the customer. Any help?
You’ll need to pick a different name. Here are some ideas:
1. **EJ's Puzzle Press**
2. **EJ's Puzzle Pages**
3. **EJ's Puzzle Creations**
4. **EJ's Puzzle Publishing**
5. **EJ's Puzzle World**
6. **EJ's Puzzle Works**
7. **EJ's Puzzle Vault**
8. **EJ's Puzzle Prints**
9. **EJ's Puzzle Makers**
10. **EJ's Puzzle Craft**
11. **EJ’s Puzzles by Print**
I keep seeing negative comments about using keyword pen names. And how mostly low content book authors are using them.
I'll do a follow up video on this.
Hi, you mentioned you started a course on pen names but I cannot find that statement. Would you please share it again?
Yes, here is a coupon, I'm retiring it and if you buy this, you'll get a discount on the new one next year:

Thank you first! So I can creat pen name as much I want? I am not sure what is right to do, sample I have a coloring book for adults and coloring book for kids. And If you could give me an advice to have only 1 pen name for both books or create 2 pen names in this case?
Yep
