Is it possible to produce, make or write a book just with the cell phone, for free and with only 2 apps? I show you in this video that yes, it is possible. Even if you have any questions, put it in the comments and I'll answer you, ok?

1. Put your book's title in the field: (Untitled Document) 2. Set your book's margins by clicking: > Archive > Page setup In my case, I put 2cm to all sides. 3. Set your book size Still in page setup, choose your book size in: paper size.In my case, I put the A5 sheet option: (14.8cm x 21cm) 4. Choose fonts for the text Click on the name "Arial" under the Tools option and choose a maximum of 3 fonts to write your book. One for the main titles, the second for the subtitles or text, and the third font for tips or special texts. In my case I chose the font: Poppins (titles) and Merriweather (general text) You have the option to download new fonts by clicking on the button: "More fonts" 5. Enter page numbers and customize them In the menu, click on: "Insert, then go to the "Page Numbers" option and choose the one you prefer, which in my case was the third. Once it's automatically added, select the number, and change the font and size, in my case I used Merriweather and size #15. 6. Add header and footer (if you want) In the menu, click on: "Insert, then go to the "Headers and Footers" option.If you want to customize each chapter by putting the title in the header, unfortunately it won't be possible by Google Docs, but you'll still have the option to put the book's title, and it will automatically add to every page. 7. Create a pattern for title, subtitle and text. Title is the biggest, the main one. (Ex: Chapter 1) I put the Poppins font, and the #30. The subtitle comes below the title. (Ex: maybe the childhood) I put the font Merriweather, and the #20. The text is the text hahaha (Ex: Maybe was born... blah, blah, blah) I put the font Merriweather, and the #17. 7. Create shortcuts to chapters Select the title, go to the option on the left side of the font name, and to the right of the 100% option, there put the option "Title" and soon the shortcut will appear on the right side of the screen in blue. 8. Insert images In the menu, go to: "Insert", then "Image" and then "Upload from computer". Choose the image and center it on the page, be careful not to expand the image beyond the page, it usually disappears with that, but if it happens press Ctrl + Z to go back. 9. Save to PDF In the menu, go to: "File", then "Download" and then "PDF Document (.pdf)". Ready. Want to see how I did it in practice?

1. Choose the genre Example: I want to tell an overcoming story. 2. Get an idea for the book Example: I had the idea to talk about a girl who is in high school and is bullied, but in the end she overcomes the difficulty and teaches her pursuers a lesson. 3. Build the story based on the idea Example: At the beginning I introduce Abbie, 19 years old, single, smart and introverted.Then I tell her a little bit about her story with her mother, Betty, and how close she is with the rest of her family.I talk about her behavior at school and create several conflicts between John and her, and in the middle of these conflicts appears Pitter, who always defends her.In the end, John is betrayed by his friends and is expelled from school, this causes confusion in his house, several boos from his classmates on his last day of school and a lot of humiliation in front of everyone, and this is where Abbie and Pitter get together.offer to help him, making him (John) open his eyes to the evil of bullying. Tip: It is extremely important that you constantly read, especially books that are in the same genre as yours.This will help you with writing, details, spelling and how to speak to your audience. 4. Choose an app to write I use Google Docs for a variety of reasons, such as: - It's online and it automatically saves - I can share with other people, so they can see and also write - Has several layout tools (book interior design) - I can write on mobile, tablet, notebook or computer But you can choose some other online writing app. 5. Choose an app to make the arts Designs you need to make for your book: - the cover, middle and back of the book - the core (interior design) - ears, if you have it (short part of the inside of the book that comes with the cover, like a continuation, talking about the author of the book) I use Photoshop, but you can use Photoscape or even Canva. 6. Make the layout Basically, you design the interior of your book, putting the page numbers, some specific artwork, a header, footer and putting the margins around the text.This is all I can do on Google Docs. 7.
