it is good to hear a success story like this. The comment about “not having spent his life in archeology….” and the reaction he got because of it is exactly the sort of thing was talking about having run into in one of the earlier comments I made, even though his book’s topic is different. Has he continued to do so well since you first wrote this?

Lee,
Oh, you’ve run into those reactions already? Glad you liked this post, then!
Though he and his partners did well with the book, the main partner in the company squandered their resources and the company folded. They did a book #2 before that happened though. Now my client is branching out on his own into photography and will probably start his own publishing company — now that he has a taste of what to do.
He’s following his passions in life and thriving, instead of working merely to pay bills. A success story indeed.
