i make sure not to take a lot of time to write a book. I don't write everyday. Perhaps just 3-4 days in a week? And at most 45 min per day.

whenever i am busy with church, family, i will put writing down. Won't ever compromise them.

And, its just a hobby i enjoy doing.

Ah - your day job isn't tech. Was wondering how you could get permission and time to do it.

Every tech job I've had here in SG expected full ownership of any and all IP created whilst an employee, no moonlighting, and always ended up consuming every waking second of my time anyway making the whole point moot.

Good on you for making it all balance and not only feeding your family but spending time with them too (which is bloody hard here).

hello fellow sg!

yea, if my day job was tech (it was previously), i would be so sick of it and wouldn't touch it when I got home. But now, i don't touch it in my day job and it suddenly becomes a pleasure to tinker with.

glad it inspired u to write your book!

will document them in twitter

Exactly! THanks!

about 2 months writing on the side for each book.

Including the research and reading steps necesary to collect the data to aggregate in your books you write? You say you have read the 3 top books and several tech blogs <--- what are they? What main sources did you read to collect the data? Maybe you won't answer since all your business is based on that, finally :-).

i document more on these in twitter. :)

Any link please? Why avoiding to answer here directly?

Hello, I believe in writing short books and spending no more than 3 months on a book. In case the book is a failure, I cut my losses.

But yea, i hope to have other products priced more than $9.99 outside Amazon, eg gumroad

I did put in work.

I am lucky.

Thanks - I realised I was scanning for a specific section on this without spotting that the whole thing was done entirely through Amazon
