BLOOMINGTON, Indiana, August 19 /PRNewswire/ --

- Indian Publisher CinnamonTeal First of Several Overseas DIY-Publishing Partners

Author Solutions ( www.authorsolutions.com ), the world leader in the fastest-growing segment of publishing, announced Tuesday its first international partnership for its dynamic DIY publishing ( http://www.wordclay.com/HowItWorks/Default.aspx ) tool, Wordclay ( http://www.wordclay.com ). Indian publisher CinnamonTeal signed on to make a white-labeled version of Wordclay available to its authors.

"This is the first of many international partnerships involving Wordclay," said Dave McCauley, president of Wordclay. "In addition to the dozens of U.S. partners already in the fold or in the process of white-labeling Wordclay, organizations in Australia, Europe, and Asia have initiated discussions to privately brand our DIY-publishing technology."

White-label Wordclay partnerships provide organizations with the opportunity to monetize their communities, print capabilities, or provide a lower-cost publishing option that supports their brand. Author Solutions, leveraging expertise gained from publishing more than 80,000 titles, handles all of the back-end technology and support. For authors, the partnership provides publishing and distribution services, with books that will be accessible through thousands of retail outlets including Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, and Borders.

"Wordclay white-label partnerships are a win-win scenario for our partners and us. They help us reach out to previously inaccessible authors, while we efficiently provide the technology and services to allow organizations to easily become publishers or existing publishers to seamlessly launch new 'farm team' imprints," McCauley said.
