(1888PressRelease) July 22, 2010 - Digital Printing allows writers who dreamed of one day being published the opportunity to be launched into the publishing marketplace with the look and feel of professionalism, and to turn a profit. If you haven't heard of it by that name, perhaps you have heard of Print-on-Demand book printing, which uses the same technology.

What attracts the modern day writer? It is accessible and affordable. There are no hoops to jump through. You can choose a package based upon your budget, and total creativity is in your hands, you decide what you want to publish, and how, from your personal story, life experiences, what you know, or your passions, etc.

Publishing a book using digital printing is fast, with all the appearance of a quality print, not to mention powerful internet positioning, but how do you make money even when the packages offer very few books?
You're absolutely right! That is a good question, one every independent publisher gets around to asking, and why most quit before they sell the first 25 books, but not Blondie L. Clayton.

According to Clayton, "I got in to run for the Gold. Digital Printing allows me to get quality at a good price, without having to stock books, plus great internet positioning. Once I figured out the system, I work it for profit. Most authors think it is about the book sales. Think about it! A book cost $12.95. The average author gets about 10% even on the traditional side. Your royalty, provided there are no returns, is around $1.30. Using digital printing that same $12.95 book, self-published, costing $4.00 to produce, sold direct, means more profit now."

Digital printing is a cost effective print and delivery system which saves money, time and storage. It is no surprise that book sellers like Amazon and publishers like Thomas Nelson are capitalizing on this niche market of writers wanting to make their publishing dreams come true.

Clayton offered these tips for the first time author: "Go with the one who can give you the most for your money. Price your book low enough to appeal to the market. Order additional books, right away, so that you can recoup your investment, what it cost to get the book ready to print, plus your book printing cost. If you are doing it to see your name on a book but not really interested in making money, it's still a good deal."

Self-publishing is fast becoming a popular alternative to anyone who has something to write about, and the number of digital print companies are growing just as rapid to meet the demands of the new author.
