Meet The Author Brittany Davis
"Hey there I'm Brittany and this is the story of Virtuous Magazine. When I was sixteen I was in love with magazines, mostly fashion and beauty magazines and I wanted to create my own. So I created a newsletter but sadly only one issue was ever released. Then, while in college, I tried to create a magazine about female entrepreneurs and I got stuck in the planning of it all. I did a job shadow with the Editor-in-Chief of Atlanta Magazine and interned there while in school. I majored in journalism and took a desktop publishing class as well. But it wasn't until after I'd graduated and got married that I really jumped in with both feet. After a month of marriage my husband had to have cancer surgery and during his recovery I needed somewhere to put my energy and Virtuous was born.
My love for the Lord, living faithful and fashion magazines all merged into one passion and that was creating a magazine for Christian women that helped us live faithful lives and focused on fun things like modest fashion. Everyone loved how colorful and thoughtful it was; women enjoyed being able to leave it around the house without worrying about indiscreet images and articles and I was finally living my dream.
Since I've started Virtuous I've also edited books and created custom publications. Plus now the magazine is free for everyone to enjoy and draw closer to God online, with the printed copies sold individually. And I've written a book entitles Style Your Soul: Get Dressed From The Inside Out.
I am so passionate about sharing the love of God with others through Virtuous and showing how fulfilling your life can be when it's dedicated to Him. I get so excited meeting sisters online and in person and hearing that they are sharing the articles with others and that something I said, wrote, posted or filmed had a positive impact in their lives. I feel so honored to give and use my talents and abilities for the Lord and I hope to leave a legacy of service and that I will leave the world better than I found it." Amazon

Print-On-Demand Publishing Platforms
Today's author has so many more choices than writers of the past. Gone are the days where a big house publisher or vanity press is required to get your manuscript turned into a beautiful book.
Technology has brought about a landscape where anyone with the desire can self-publish a book.
Print-on-demand publishing is different from vanity publishing, because with print-on-demand services there is no upfront out-of-pocket cost. Writers simply determine with platform they prefer, get a free membership and upload their completed works.
Publishers, print-on-demand and e-book, alike receive a portion of each books sale, and the author makes royalties. There is no need for a storage place for a large quantity of books. They are living in a virtual warehouse. Typically, if authors need copies of their books for book signings, fairs, or other engagements they can order them for a drastically reduced price.
As of now I work exclusively with Createspace (an Amazon company) and Amazon Kindle. Createspace has agreements with a massive amount of vendors so book distribution is huge. Books published through Createspace can be purchases at Barnes & Noble, other books stores, and are even available at countless other online distributors.
Cover creation through Createspace is also a breeze. I almost always use their cover creator for all of my books. Createspace has scores of stock photos, but there is also an option to upload your own photos.
Createspace has an option to upload books to Amazon Kindle, but I prefer to upload my books through Amazon. I feel like the e-books look nicer if I create a separate e-book file. Kindle now has a e-book creator for children's books, graphic novels and comic books!
I am so grateful for the new print-on-demand publishing services. To date, I have created 12 books through Createspace and Kindle, and I don't plan on stopping!
