I’m scared to publish anything at all for months as KDP rules have gone haywire this year, unclear, misleading and inconsistent and bots are seemingly out of control

Thank you so much for making a video about this. So few people let out information about this stuff.

Public domain works are amazing sellers. One of my top sellers is a famous poets compilation poetry book. One of my top sellers out of my 200 books I’ve written.

that's a better idea than what I did. I did 2 PD books on how to read and write poetry -I make a whopping 75 cents per quarter from them!

Thanks Dave. What if somebody completely revamps a public domain book and creates something like "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies?" Would they still need to check the "This is a public domain book" in the KDP publishing process?

You say that you can only publish a book that has been annotated or changed. From my reading, you can also publish one that is completely UNchanged - provided you are the first one to publish it on Amazon. So my understanding is that you wouldn't be able to publish "Pollyanna" without annotation or something, because it's already so widely available, but you could publish "The Chesson Family Diaries from 1896" since it isn't already available on Amazon (what with it not existing and all). Am I correct in that reading?

Do I need to write (illustrations & annotations) in the title section beside the name of my book?

Regarding adding illustrations, if hiring an artist is permissible does that also mean that using stock art would be acceptable? (As long as your license is adequate, of course)

What about modern retelling of a pd. I have just written a book based on Christmas story “ The Stuffed Elephant “ the new version holds the main foundation of the story but has additional story lines added and changed characters and scenes. It has a different title as well as illustration s.I have included a note from the author acknowledging the original story and author why and how this book has been created. So does this still fall in the public domain category or is it a new publication with acknowledgment

The work you are basing it on is in the public domain, so putting your note in the copyright page is important/helpful. But your work is not public domain, so it will still be copyrighted by you/belong to you because it is a retelling and that aspect of it is original. Lots of retellings of Peter Pan get published all the time.
