You offered "3,000+ Tech PR contacts!" with your book. Where did you source these contacts? Did they allow their contact to be used in the book, or was this a public aggregation? Do you think that played a big role in selling your book at $100 a pop?

I think there's great potential for self-published books with mainstream appeal to be launched via interviews on established podcasts or even independent pod mini-series. IMO, we need to bring back the "wealthy benefactor" for niche writers to free them from academia

But also: what you want to be paying for is not *a book,* but for a smart person in the grip of obsession to make themselves into a world-class resource. The book is *an* output, maybe not *the* output. Book sales are a terrible funding model

I asked this before but will ask again: Why do you think it is then that most nonfiction sells at a ~$20 price point? Publishers’ status quo? Or does this maximize potential for broad appeal?
