What if I want a hard copy? Are you working with a printer? That would revenue.

I talked with several publishers. It seems a 750-page, high-quality printed book just isn’t economically viable these days.

Had to search but it seems that lulu allows 800 pages so your book can fit just right in

There are definitely some other publishers like No Starch Press who might help ya as well.

A standard color book with 800 pages will be around $25 at scale. So, if I sell it for ~$40, I would make ~$5.

Since I spend so much time, I decided to let people read it.

So why not break it up into smaller bits? You could probably do that fairly easily with an LLM - I get that you don't want AI slop, but this would be more about helping you structure it into more publishable sizes/topics and would be your words.

Most publishers wanted me to split it into two or three parts. However, doing so would require splitting it at awkward points.

Additionally, I’ve spent so much energy writing it that I didn’t want to deal with that.
