This looks like a great idea. But I have a few questions regarding this. Do you plan to make a profit from this? It seems like this will take a lot of money and time to complete. Is it neccesary to do a live interview? I mean, some of us might be in (...) (22 years ago, 12-Feb-03, to lugnet.books)

I look foward to this book, however I have one concern that the photographs may end up being very US centred. While my gut feeling is that probably about half the AFOLs (not that it is just about AFOLS) are based in the US there are many other (...) (22 years ago, 12-Feb-03, to lugnet.books)
