Hi Paul
if you decided to go ahead with this idea, the book is already written and ilistrated amongst the threads. you would need to write intro about yourself and why you started the forum and how it has progressed, maybe a couple of testimonials from long term posters, then use the material amongst the threads
EG:
swiss chard man, war of the weeds By Leia i think
show how info is shared amongst the forum with humor, wit and also with tec no-how
every section of the forum seems informative and with humor
there are many bits worth printing in all sections
you could produce a book that shows
permaculture is not a group of radical greenies trying to enforce their ways on the world, but is a choise on how to exist in harmony with earth and everything on it. that it can be done in back yards, farms anywhere by anyone, its just not
gardening but also power, pollution reduction, basicaly everything
aim for a low cost paperback say $10 -$20 retail?
maybe ask some of the buisness posters to help with the costs of publication, with advertzing sectoin included in book
if you are unsure what to put in you can ask the forum im sure most will have memorble informitive posts that have stuck in their minds, show pro's and con's
a simple honest book for the people by the people and about their permie dreams and actions, a forum full of published authors? now that would be different
