Lightbulb My Own Sea Fishing Book?!

Hi guys.
Carping on suggested to me a few weeks ago - that i PUBLISH MY OWN SEA FISHING BOOK with all of the information i've added to this forum.

I just want your views - what do you think?

I'm only 13 at the moment - but when i'm older - what do you think?

I've actully reaserched prices - and i can do a hard-back 100 page book for £3.00 - an extra £1.00 for shop delievery - an extra 50p in publishing and shop profits and VAT. So - i'd make about 50p profit from each book i sell.

What do you think?!
Please vote on the poll - giving your views.

Ok

Start now

biuld up a good selection of photo's for illustrations of your own (that way you don't have to pay anyone for using their pictures)

Read a lot of other books that are written on the subject and decide what would make you buy them
if you are writting a "how to book" then pictures and diagrams are a must and keep it simple

then you need a publisher --
apparently the hardest part is to get one --never tried.---- photography contests are bad enough and dog shows -just don't get me started


so start now and plan to publish when you are around 20 and NEED the money
