   Hi. Great blog. Also, excellent idea on e-publishing a book. Would only add that you might consider the Manning Books approach to e-publishing, which has two interesting ‘twists’.

   1. they pre-publish the book for “early purchasers” once they have a about 5-6 chapters. they invite feedback. The ‘early bird purchase’ is about 50% off the eventual retail price from a bookstore

   2. they discount the e-book while selling a printed/bound version. Although e-books are great, many still want printed/bound. Consider publishing in Lulu (www.lulu.com) which does a great job at “on demand print publishing” — they only print as many as are ordered…

   Great stuff.

   I e-published the first healthcare/internet book in 1996 — two thumbs up to self-publishers!

   Mike,
   I like the idea. That’s kind of what I’ve done now in some respects. The long term plan is to write another e-Book on EMR implementation and topics like that. Then, I could put all the e-Books together to make a nice printed/bound version.

   We’ll see how it goes and how much time I have.

   Glad I could continue in the tradition you started.
