If you\\u2019re a KDP Author and you\\u2019re wondering whether you should put your book in Amazon KDP Select, you\\u2019re not alone. It\\u2019s a complicated decision, and you could be leaving money on the table either way.

\\n

Amazon KDP Select gives you some special Kindle promotional tools, and enrolling your book is free. But, of course, there\\u2019s a catch: 

\\n

You have to enroll for a full 90-day period, during which Amazon has the exclusive right to sell your ebook.  

\\n

In other words, you can\\u2019t sell your own ebook on iBooks, Kobo, Nook, or anywhere besides Kindle for the next 90 days.  

\\n

So, is it worth it?  In this episode, we\'ll walk you through all the pros and cons of KDP Select for a self-published author of a non-fiction book.
