Honestly, I don't know.

I had a publisher reach out to me last week wanting me to write a book for them, and I'm been
wondering if it's worth considering or not.

I already write a in depth mailing list, and am developing an idea for a "course". But a book was never really o my radar.

Ah, you're not even to my decision tree yet.

Sounds like the purpose in you writing a book would be to gain credibility as an expert. "I wrote the book on this" is a selling point in certain types of consulting. Depending on your career goals, it might be worthwhile. ​

That's a really helpful way to look at it, thanks! 😁

@valorin @mwlucas Randomly reaching out sounds like something Packt would do. I ended up reviewing a pfSense book from them over 10 years ago, for minimal recompense but the experience was worthwhile ...
