I would love to publish it. But I also know that writing isn't easy,
especially something big. I have done some technical writing (hardest job
I ever had) and also written, edited, and published some stamp collecting
related journals and one book. There is a lot of satisfaction when you
are finished, however. I also like to think that I have contributed
something that people will refer to for a number of years to come. I know
that would be the case for a comprehensive clarinet repair guide.

Clark....

Can I put in my order now????

Suggestion - do a chapter at a time, and self publish it. Or have Gary
publish it.
