Can I Buy And Resell Copies Of My Own Book From Amazon KDP?

There are two questions that I get asked about publishing my webcomic books on Amazon KDP.

1 - Can I Order A Print Copy Of My Own Book From Amazon KDP?

When I started printing on Amazon KDP I also had that question.

The reason I put the books together is I was just kind of doing it for myself.

I could make a paperback version of my webcomic books and then I and my family could get a copy. It didn't even occur to me that I could actually start selling the book in public.

I thought it was just print-on-demand and then maybe I could order one.

But when I print a book on Amazon KDP I can also get up to 999 copies and sell it on my own!

I was able to get my own copies from Amazon KDP sent to me.

As the author, I can get them at printing cost. So they're at a discounted price.

The option to order author copies is right in the KDP publishing setup.

The button is next to the book in KDP. 👇

2 - Can I Sell My Amazon KDP Author Copies?

What if I want to sell a bunch of my books locally or at events? Yes, I can.

Selling the author copies is the same as people buying them from Amazon and getting them printed. I paid for the printing cost to have them made.

I order a whole bundle of the author copies of my webcomic books for pop-up events and tabling at shows. I was able to buy these books get them delivered to my house and sell them at these shows.

I made a video talking more about this and the whole process of making my webcomic book.

New song! Variation witch

Keeping up with my plan to release new music every month. This time around I venture into the punk blues realm. Sort of a mixture of The Black Keys and The Eels . This is a song called "Variation witch" by my band Lorenzo's Music . The cover art is actually an antique top that I have in my collection. What I liked about it was the striped disc kind of like something in a Tim Burton film.

A quick peek behind-the-scenes of a new webcomic series. Coming soon!

I've recently paused my usual diary comic to dedicate my attention to an exciting new project—a fiction webcomic series featuring two characters that may be familiar to my long-time followers. These characters, Bobert and the Monster have made appearances on my website before , and now they're taking center stage. I'm working diligently with the hope of launching the series shortly. In the meantime, I'd like to share this behind-the-scenes video of the drawing process for one of the upcoming pages. Stay tuned for more updates as I bring this creative vision to life.

Artwork for the original Candy Land game by Milton Bradley from 1955.

I have a vintage Candy Land game from 1955 by Milton Bradley and I was about to sell it so I thought I would add it to my personal art history course concept I've been doing . I'm going to try and see if I can find out how this game was created, designed and why? Here is what I found out about this game https://candy-land.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land_Wiki Candy Land is a board game about children exploring a world made out of candy and other sweets that originally came out in 1949. In every version of the game, there are a group of children that go through Candy Land. In the earliest versions of the game, it was a realistically drawn boy and girl. Drawing of the Candy Land kids I did on my phone ☝ https://board-games-galore.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land The game was designed in 1948 by Eleanor Abbott , while she was recovering from polio in San Diego, California. It's rumored that Eleanor also did the original artwork but I didn't find anything that
