Hi list

I've considered writing a book for a while now - firstly the task of finding 
a publisher in the UK is a real problem because the Roadster is really a 
minority interest over here - (only 15 cars, of which only 4 are on the 
road). Secondly, although this is a hobby and income is not the main issue, 
unless you're an established writer over here, the income from publishing is 
a real headache - a friend of mine, Brian Long, who's written a couple of 
Fairlady/Z Books as well as books on a number of other marques, has lost 
money on a couple of books and he has also been tied to the publishers 
content requirements. 

As an opener, and to go armed with ammunition to a prospetive publisher, I'm 
interested in who on the lists would purchase a book with the sort of content 
on the site, especially the SCCA racers? Cost would be around $35-$40. 

Please could you E-Mail me and I will consider the possibilities.

Many thanks in advance 

Rob
