With new technology, Molly will be a full-color paperback!

Update #63 · Sep 3, 2012 · comment

Update from Katarina:

As a result of my relationship with Influence Publishing on my Dad's book, I am learning a lot about the independent publishing industry.  And with new technology just introduced, it looks like Influence Publishing can provide me the full color paperback I initially thought wasn't possible with them!  

From Ingram Makes Color Print-On-Demand More Economical:

Ingram Content Group has announced a new standard color pricing model for print-on-demand technology that has reduced costs by roughly two-thirds, making color POD an economical publishing option for the first time. Achieved through advancements in inkjet technology, the price drop means that a greater range of book content can be printed in color and done faster around the world…

The current plan is that the book launch will incorporate a street art type reveal.  I have been working tirelessly (well actually, I am really tired!!!) on developing my name as a street artist in order to bring Molly to a higher level.  You can read more about the street art on my PORTRAIT page on my blog (scroll down for links).

Love Katarina
