Today I read Writing a book: is it worth it? Short answer: probably. I’m in the process of writing a book about database design, and it has slowly dawned on me what a huge undertaking it is actually going to be.
p.s. I found the above article after having stumbled my way through here. There’s some interesting stuff there.
Advice from all my friends that have written a book (probably over a dozen if I were to count):
Do it because you can’t NOT write that particular book. Because it’s too hard to do unless you have to.
You will probably make about $2/hour. If that.
That’s a good way of looking at it, thanks.
