More than anything else, I am up for the challenge. After writing and publishing three (3) Philippines-centric books, working with this online blogging tutorial turned book as a project can provide a lot of international publishing lessons learned.
Through it, I hope to expand my network of contacts too.
Nice reasons... just like what I have in my post. It's really nice to know the reasons behind whatever it is that we do. It gives greater meaning... :P

ReplyDeleteWow, writing a book is quite the undertaking, I really admire that, I wouldn't have any idea of where to start & my book would probably be about 4 pages long, good luck!
ReplyDeleteMost bloggers end up having book deals especially if their contect are good. This is one of the many ways a blogger can earn money indirectly from blogging. Come to think about it it was mentioned in Darren Rowse's blog.
ReplyDeleteAnyways, you're a Filipino pala ^_^ Nice to know that there are many Filipinos that are gaining the upper hand in blogging.
