Book Printing Has Changed … and Author Planning Must, Too!

Any printer can put ink on paper. The question should be asked: is the printer committed to the craft of building amazing books? On the AuthorU-Your Guide to Book Publishing podcast, Tim Hewitt—sales representative for the Rocky Mountain region of Friesens is featured.  Friesens serves the needs of publishers across North America using the latest equipment operated by a highly skilled team of prepress, press, and bindery experts and delivers exceptional quality short-run projects throughout the USA and Canada.

Your takeaways include:

• Why EVERY author must plan their printing needs much farther ahead than originally thought was needed.

• Here’s the good. Book demand across many categories and media has been phenomenal. Books are not dead, they are thriving.

• Decades ago publishers searched out cheaper printing overseas. Discover what has changed.

• How one cargo ship stuck in a canal for 100 days wrecked the fine balance and create ripples everywhere.

• Why there are delays in printing books today.

• How to work with a printer to collaborate on projects and trust their advice.

If you don’t want you and your book to be ignored, then the AuthorU-Your Guide to Book Publishing podcast is for you. Judith Briles has lots to share in this episode of the AuthorU-Your Guide to Book Publishing podcast.
