@iPad_storytime: We're talking about bridging the digital divide with 'print-on-demand' after creating a storybook app ... cool idea! #storyappchat

April 2, 2012, 1:07 am

@brooks_jones: POD [Print On Demand] is definitely the way to go, since the traditional print market is drying up. #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:08 am

@MissMelodyKitty: NEW app from Spirit-led Designs - Lily's Picturebook: http://t.co/lyy47YAi via @youtube #storyappchat #CVI #ASL #visuallyimpaired #deaf

April 2, 2012, 1:08 am

@brooks_jones: Plus, by using POD to print your already existing app story idea, you maintain copyright and control. #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:08 am

@ruBORED: @iPad_storytime #storyappchat do you mean self pushing in traditional form?

@iPad_storytime: @brooks_jones Have you considered published "I don't like pink" in print? Such a great story! #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:09 am

@brooks_jones: Printing more than one copy at a time on an offset press is tricky, since there's no guarantee you'll sell all copies... #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:10 am

@DeclicKids: #storyappchat do you have sample pages showing both digital and POD stories ? Think I haven't seen anything like that here in France
April 2, 2012, 1:10 am

@brooks_jones: ...but you still have to pay for what you have printed. Now that prices have dropped for POD, it's a much better option #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:10 am

@JumbleBugs: Definitely a topic i'm interested in since I'd love to see the story in book form (and my nieces don't have ipads). #storyappchat

@iPad_storytime: @ruBORED Yes, but after the fact of pub in digital as storybook app - in reverse I guess or a 'proof of concept' for print #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:11 am

@brooks_jones: @iPad_storytime Thanks for those kind words! I have not as of yet, mostly 'cause I don't have the time to devote to marketing! #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:11 am

@MissMelodyKitty: @ruBORED #storyappchat Thank you again for the nice article about my new app http://t.co/W3IFdXLA
April 2, 2012, 1:12 am

@brooks_jones: If you do decide to go the hard copy route [even POD], you'll want to make sure you have hi-res versions of all your art. #storyappchat

@MissMelodyKitty: @iPad_storytime thank you for the RT #storyappchat


April 2, 2012, 1:13 am

@iPad_storytime: @DeclicKids Do you mean sample pages online to show the print vs. digital versions ... not sure how that would work ... #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:14 am

@DeclicKids: @iPad_storytime #storyappchat no example pages where both are marketing #excusemyfrench ;-)
April 2, 2012, 1:15 am

@iPad_storytime: @JumbleBugs I think this is a big part of the POD appeal, not everyone has a device so print has dif audience than digital #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:16 am

@MissMelodyKitty: @brooks_jones @ipad_storytime I used Mobipocket Creator to make a Kindle ebook #storyappchat

April 2, 2012, 1:17 am

@iPad_storytime: @DeclicKids Interesting, I think an author website could market multiple formats, from dif digital platforms 2 print possibly? #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:17 am

@JumbleBugs: @iPad_storytime Definitely. Plus even though the app is exciting, it'd be nice to see our story in an "oldfashioned" book! #storyappchat

@brooks_jones: @ruBORED Yes, they do--and it's near to impossible these days to get a book deal w/a traditional publisher. #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:18 am

@brooks_jones: Also: make sure what your goals are when deciding to go print. Identify your audience and distribution method. #storyappchat

@JumbleBugs: @brooks_jones ...we took matters into our own hands and started on the app. #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:19 am

@brooks_jones: @JumbleBugs That's why I recommend POD, if you already have a website or other storefront option. #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:19 am

@brooks_jones: @JumbleBugs Good for you! That's pretty much what I did too. #storyappchat

April 2, 2012, 1:44 am

@iPad_storytime: @JumbleBugs From observing others, I would say a 'do' is 2 assume print will take as much marketing (if not more) than digital #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:44 am

@JumbleBugs: How about pricing - do people take notice if it's a POD book and expect it to be less? #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:46 am

@JumbleBugs: @iPad_storytime Great point re: marketing. I think we'd push the app however have the print as an option on the site too... #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:46 am

@JumbleBugs: ...for folks who are interested and would prefer the book. #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:47 am

@brooks_jones: @JumbleBugs I think the POD quality is almost as good as offset now, so most folks won't notice the difference #storyappchat
April 2, 2012, 1:47 am

@brooks_jones: If I ever do print versions of my books, they will be as add-ons to my digital offerings, not the main focus #storyappchat

April 2, 2012, 1:53 am

@JumbleBugs: @iPad_storytime i meant in comparison to other print books, a POD copy will have to be more than the app. #storyappchat

April 2, 2012, 1:54 am

@brooks_jones: I would think a POD book would/should cost about the same as a book printed on the offset press. #storyappchat

April 2, 2012, 1:56 am

@brooks_jones: But: price it based on YOUR costs. What is the POD service charging you for a single copy? Mark up from there. #storyappchat

@JulieFHedlund: Interesting to see people going to print from digital. Is that all POD or have some gone with pub. house? #storyappchat
