I am a self-published author and I have our book available to be gained through a kindle or be a hardcopy, the digital books cost me truly nothing to send people for free to get reviews or to get our name out there, i designed the cover myself all online.

I just send the person a link and I am fantastic to go.

The hardcopy books are quite a bit of cash. I have to have the book printed and use up all that paper; Also, making our cover was a lot of labor too. I ended up going through a single corporation to just do the inside of the book. They print all the words, chapter breaks and author information. I then receive the books without a cover. I do the printing for our own cover now. I absolutely bought a high tech digital printer. I can design our book cover the exact way I want it. I don’t need to worry about sizing being off, words in the wrong place, or faded colors. I do all that labor myself. The cover is so important on a book. Anytime I rely on anyone else to do it, it usually ends up a disappointment. I have thought about trying our hand at doing the whole book… Right now our printer can only cut, laminate and color covers. I might need to invest in a better printing component to do the middle section of the book. That way I don’t have to go through anyone and can handle all sales myself.
