I made my first 4 sales on a Cat wordsearch book that I made off of one of your other videos. Thank you for the info. I ended up making good use of Canva and Bookbolt and I went over the top cute with puns and I made the cover image cat wearing glasses 💖 I called it a feline word search adventure. I was too proud of myself when I got those first few sales 😆 No sales on the coloring books yet but I’m super happy with the Kawaii Lovecraft Monsters one I made. I’m probably going to scrap the first coloring book that I don’t like as much as that one, then redo and republish with a slightly different name though. 🍀

awesome video! For midjourney when doing a negative prompt its --no(dash dash no) and then whatever you want midjourny to exclude. so for your example it would be --no shading , I also found putting black and white at the beginning helped. So something like this "black and white coloring page for kids, cute Halloween scene, cartoon style, thick lines, low detail --no shading --ar 85:110"

Wow thanks. That cover and coloring pages look great. I did find out recently too that coloring pages can be edited in Canva to adjust for things like too much grayscale in the image. You go into edit photo, adjust and adjust the contrast and brightness. I did test it out and it does work and makes a huge difference. You can do the same in Book Bolt I do believe. Thanks for the video I have been having a hard time with prompts for coloring pages and book covers so this helps.

I watched this video 4 months ago (and all the others before this one), I followed the whole setup, created 12 coloring books, did not do any advertisement/marketing, I apparently sold 5 books as of right now (28 November 2023). I have no doubt that there is space for improvement somewhere, although I'm not sure if it will be something capable of "passive income" or even pay some bills. I think I'll have to learn more and dedicate a bit more of my time to understand the Amazon KDP ecosystem so that I can understand why it's not working for me. I'm sure others may have different outcomes.

@katharineshade9550
@katharineshade9550 9 месяцев назад
It doesn’t have to be exactly the same. The easiest way is to grab similar pictures from mid journey that have the same prompt apart from the black and white/colour parts. Otherwise, you either convert a colour one to b&w for the interior, or edit a black and white one to colour it. I was doing the latter recently before I realised I didn’t need to do all that work.

Your videos are great Paul. I think I'm going to go back and watch your old ones. I have become quite dissolution with AI. Not just my own results but the whole mess. I downloaded more than 10 packets of coloring book pages. Each one included over 100 pictures. As I went through the pictures I realized that each packet was very similar. Then as I looked closer, I could see the bizarre imperfections. Especially with the "cute animals". Several had an extra limb. Do these people not check the pictures? I can only imagine a kid coloring those. Then the Halloween packets are even more bizarre. Many just made my head hurt looking at them. Always check the hands. Not to mention bits and pieces floating around that are not quite birds or leaves on the plants with eyes.... A lot of pictures just would never make sense when you are trying to color them. Places where the picture kind of melts.... They just do not work. The video you did on the vintage car on a bridge... They look good at 10,000 feet but on closer inspection things just aren't right. Sorry for the rant but after several months of mucking about with AI I think I've had it. I did sell a couple of journals and will continue to use AI to generate ideas and even some verbiage, but I'm really going to scrutinize anything that I use in a coloring book. Sorry about the rant but I really got frustrated inspecting more than 1000 coloring book pictures today.... And keep up the good work.

Hi Paul. Let me start saying thank you very much for creating these videos. I'm a beginner and I followed along on an older video you released titled create a journal to sell on Amazon kdp for free and I'm happy to say because of you I was able to accomplish successfully submitting my first 6x9 journal on kdp. I have a question for you. Can I reuse the same template that I downloaded over again or do I have to download a new one for each journal? Also same question for the pages. One part confused me though and I have refrained from making another one because in the video you larger number in the width box and the smaller number in the height box in canva. Should they be reversed?
@katharineshade9550

You can do either. If you are using two fonts then I would advise learning about pairing fonts as most people use the wrong fonts together.

Great Video thanks! Does anyone know if its possible to generate the pages randomly? for example 40 different images without 40 prompts?

Thanks to you, I published one last week and I’m working on an Halloween and Christmas now. My only thing is, do you find your doing good on selling your coloring books? I know it can take awhile so I can’t wait to get my first sale. 😊

Is it good idea to buy midjourney for higher subscription so that all work would be secret? So pictures would not show up! Or no point of doing that?
@paulmarles
@paulmarles Год назад
No, I don't think it's worth doing that.

Question: if you make a coloring book with 40 pages or so for coloring, but include a page that teaches marker rendering techniques, a page that teaches layered pencil coloring, color theory, highlights, shadows, how to control the viewer's eye path around the page, and how to elicit a specific emotion, does it still fit in the KDP catigory?
@paulmarles
@paulmarles 11 месяцев назад
It would still be a book you publish via KDP. If you mean is it clasified as low content then as it's a coloring book, no, it wouldn't fall under the low content category.

Can I just please quickly ask, so basically the covers we are using the 17.34 inch x 11.25 inch size, then coming into the colouring pages, they will still be 8.625 inch x 11.25 inch, using a colouring page then a blank page until the end? Thank you!

Do you need to make a note that there is blank pages within your coloring books so ppl purchasing them know? (All coloring books I get for our kids, if they say 80pages+, there are designs side by side and front to back. I personally wouldn’t be happy purchasing an 80 page coloring books and not knowing that majority of it is blank pages.)

I wouldn't say there is a need but there is no harm if you want to. It's easy enough to write it in the description.

Hey Paul, thank for sharing! BTW: when pricing, why is this message "Not offered in this marketplace" appearing. Does that mean that the book won't be available in those marketplaces?

Yes, that would normally be the case.

KDP keeps telling me that my image has objects beyond the image's safety margin, but those are items that aren't important and could be clipped. Another problem is the email that KDP sends me asking me to add the bleed, but when I do that, I get another error saying that I sent a larger file than I chose when I created the book. "Add 0.125" (3.2 mm) to your book's page width and 0.25" (6.4 mm) to the page height to ensure that the images in your manuscript extend beyond the edge of the page. Once you have added the size, extend any images or backgrounds that you want to reach all the way to the edge of the page 0.125” (3.2 mm) beyond the trim line. This prevents manufacturing issues when the file is trimmed to size" I don't know where I'm going wrong
@paulmarles
@paulmarles 10 месяцев назад
Any images that are outside the margin that you don;t mind getting clipped need to go beyond the edges of the page.

Hello Paul, another awesome video. I have a question. I am trying to create a graffiti-style coloring book. I have yet to be able to come up with the correct verbiage to make any AI art generator design a graffiti-style image. You know, the graffiti that is usually seen on old buildings that have been spray painted on. I am trying to design actual pieces of art that appear as if it is an actual art piece that is painted onto the side of a building or sidewalk or warehouse door etc. It doesn't seem as if AI art generators recognize graffiti artists. I can manually manipulate words and letters to give it that graffiti vibe, but I am trying to create that real street graffiti art style that is often depicted on train cars or the graffiti art that has been showcased on brick walls for display. Oh well, I guess I am just reaching. Oh yeah, I am a subscriber on my other channel. I started my KDP Publishing business from your videos. I have now published 50 books. Thank you so much. I genuinely appreciate you!!!😊👍

Congratulations on publishing those books. That's great to hear. Are you trying to create graffiti style text? I know a lot of AI generators don't seem to be too good at creating text at the moment.

paul, hi your videos are. great and i got into the course with kathryne on your link. i create all my images in midjourney and use --ar 85:110 for them and when i uoload them to crystal theyre 1024 x 1024. whatam i doing wrong? its so frustrating and is taking weeks. thx

@paulmarles 9 месяцев назад
I don't know. If you're using --ar 85:110 it should create them in the correct ratio. Do they look square in MidJourney?
