QuillDrop: The Simple Way to Format Your Book for Amazon KDP

If you’re like most writers, you want to focus on what matters most - writing your story. But when it comes time to publish on Amazon KDP, some struggle with how to format, and others waste time in formatting by creating unnecessary complexity. KDP really works with simple, clean Word documents as input. And then all you need to do is use the right size for paperback. QuillDrop makes it all simple.

Write First, Format Later

I’ve used QuillDrop to format all my novels - over 1 million words across 15+ books. The process is simple: write your manuscript in plain text, paste it into QuillDrop, and get back a professionally formatted Word document ready for KDP.

No More Formatting Headaches

Many writers get stuck when faced with KDP’s formatting requirements. Should the margins be this wide? What font size works best? How do I handle chapter breaks? QuillDrop handles all of this automatically, using standard templates that work with KDP’s requirements.

Keep It Simple

QuillDrop does one thing really well - it turns your manuscript into a clean, professional document that’s ready for KDP. No complex software to learn. No endless tweaking of settings. Just paste your text and click convert. There are many benefits writing in simple Markdown text. You can learn more here.
