Happy Thanksgiving
Thank you for being here, sharing, and growing with us! We are working on some fun and valuable additions ... we can't wait to share them with you in December. In the meantime ... if you are in the US, I do hope you enjoy the holiday. Please note: the Book Launchers team is on light staffing until December 1st.

Happy Thanksgiving all!
Please Report DMs
Good morning!! If someone in the group sends you an unsolicited DM that feels off for any reason please report it to me, @Kate Duncan, @Angela Jones or any other Book Launchers person. We keep a watch list and will swiftly remove anyone we are already watching that gets reported as well. We want to keep this community clean, friendly and supportive. That means you are not allowed to give other people the 'ick'. 😂 You are welcome to tell others about your book, ask for beta readers, ARC reviewers, ideas, and feedback. You can even tell each other about your favorite services, tools etc ... but if we feel that is all you're here to do, you're selling a service, you're spammy, or you're not who you say you are .... we will say goodbye!! Thank you for your help in keeping this community great!!

Not allowed to give someone the “ick”? Oh no. My days are numbered.
What's Your AI Secret Weapon
I'm sure most of you are using AI in some fashion by now. I'm curious what applications you are using and for what. I currently use ChatGPT occasionally for ideas on how to rephrase something, ChatGPT and Perplexity for research (I write about the New Orleans Saints) and also toy around with Nano Banana for book cover image ideas.

@Julie Broad never heard of that one. But I have a 6-hour drive to Boston tomorrow, so I will listen to some videos on the ride. Thanks for the heads up.
KDP Short Reads?
All, Just wanted to reach out to all of the authors (and aspiring authors) to see if you've tried submitting any work as a KDP Short Read. To give some back story, I primarily interview former NFL players. I was considering writing smaller biographies about each guy I interview as short reads to build up my library and create a "series". I didn't know if it would make more sense to compile a bunch of them and make a more substantial book instead. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks!

@Kate Duncan thank you for the info
TUESDAY - KDP Red Flags
I've got Elissa, who runs our Books Hub, coming on to help me with Tuesday's livestream. We're going to discuss several factors that can cause your book to be flagged by KDP. We have had it happen with new uploads and with revisions after a book has been out for awhile. It should be a great session. It's at 1pm PST (not the normal time of 2pm PST). https://youtube.com/live/PBmRUvrGASc
