[First Journey] $125 per month with KDP

[TheSecond]

Hi, it looks like you don't only sell ebooks, you also sell using paperback, but I though a book has to be 100 pages to use paperback.
How many pages are your books

I don't sell ebooks only paperbacks. and most of my lined notebooks and logbooks are 120 pages.

120 pages, wow, how do you make 2-5 books per day, even though it's coloring/puzzles, it'll take time to get it done

Sorry for not being clear enough. But those 120 pages are for logbooks and notebooks which are usually just 1 page duplicated 120 times.
about the coloring books, I only published two (both of them with similar interiors), and are only 42 pages (20 unique designs and 20 blank pages).

But are coloring books and notebooks not useless if their not paper back

What gave you the impression that I'm not working on paperbacks?

Finally started to get sales after a depressing week.

also, I'm planning to upload 200 books for valentine's Day starting next year.

Coloring books are HIGHLY profitable BUT it also takes a lot longer to make a decent book.

I have a little question, to sell a book on KDP i need VAT number or can i sell it like a private?

I didn't know what VAT is when i created the account. so you probably don't need it XD.

Small Update
December earnings: 90$
Total Books Published: 140.

 

[TheSecond]

Earnings are slow as expected. Only got 1 sale so far.
I made a prompted journal for couples with a few different covers but the interior was 26MB(. No idea how I ended up with such a large size.
instead of remaking them i starting working on an adult coloring book.

Here is a preview.

Hi OP, may I ask how many notebooks/journals/lined books have you published? I am hearing that Amazon forbids same interior book with different covers.

Publish a few books in the same niche without marking them as adult content and see if it affects the sales.
And report back).

Reporting back - I haven't published any more books, but I unticked the adult content box on the curse word themed book I mentioned late December. I've had a couple of sales since
