I’m excited and flattered that a publisher has expressed interest in publishing my “other” blog as a book. (Old School) Yay!!! Publishers liking my writing! That’s a good thing.
There are so many questions, though.
How long should it be? Which posts do I choose?
Do I arrange things in categories, like a cookbook? Or do something like “A year of self-reliance” with a project a week?
How many pictures should it have? On the internet pictures don’t cost money. I can load my blog posts up, no problem. But lots of pictures in a printed book=expensive.
Would I make more money if I self-published it instead?
Would it be dog-ugly if I did?
p.s. if you read the Old School, would you leave me a comment on which post is your favorite? Trying to make some choices…
Well first of all, I'm partial to several posts that came out in the beginning of December last week. But that's just me. No particular reason or anything… *GRINS*
That said, I think this is great! I think going publisher route is always better. Sure there are benefits to going self published, but if you have someone interested that's all the better!
Layout: I kind of like the "year of projects" or "cookbook" type ideas. I'm not sure how hard it would be to categorize like a cookbook, but I do think project per week makes things seem ever so doable. Good luck deciding! I can't wait until I can hold Old School textbooks in my hands!
