I'm dreaming of travelling around the world, and I've brought the subject up to my husband. The answer was a terrified...no. He's so straight-laced and he likes to be in control of his life, house, job, finances, future and can't look past all the possible adventures we could share with our daughter travelling for a year. I'm still convincing him...What's wrong with taking 1 year sabbatical at work? Any advice on this end? :) <abbr><em>jen laceda’s last blog post..Hats and Sarouels</abbr></em> Hi Mara, I wish I had a supportive, travel-minded husband like you do (but mine’s ok-haha)!!

You lived the dream my friend. You might want to think about POD. I published through Lulu. The down side is that your book ends up costing more than you would like because POD publisher and seller both take a cut. The upside is, LULU also has an e-book feature so you can make a little more. If you get the publishing package, they help you with ISBN number, etc (I chose published by you). They also have an e-book feature. That is how I am selling most of my guidebooks. Won't make you rich. Will make you published :) <abbr><em>Bridget Smith’s last blog post..<a href="http://www.familyadventureguidebooks.com/2009/06/02/travel-tip-tuesday-join-scouting/" rel="nofollow">Travel Tip Tuesday: Join Scouting</a></abbr></em> Sounds like a wonderful book.

I have read your preface and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it! I would definitely buy your e-book and, as you know, I don't have children. The writing is fantastic, Mara. I feel really proud of you! Maybe it's time to shop your book around to publishers. (Just a thought...) <abbr><em>Monna’s last blog post..Dreaming of Cadaques on the Costa Brava</abbr></em> Hi Mara!
