Print may still be black and white, but the world of publishing is suddenly every color of the rainbow. With new technology making it easier for authors to print, market and even distribute their work, writers are releasing e-books, print-on-demand titles, even stories serialized on their own websites — all without the help of traditional publishing houses. It's a kaleidoscope of options that's constantly evolving.

But one thing hasn't changed: No matter how authors choose to publish, they still need the credibility that comes with an objective book review. Unfortunately, the mainstream media has largely shut self publishers out of this review process.

That's where BlueInk Review comes in.
