I did my first one this year. Bob W, Chris and Karin Mitchell, and I put one together for Mike Wilson and his family as a thank you for their hospitality when we all traveled north to see him. Through Lightroom it was an absolute breeze. The hardest part was staying on top of typos :-).
Because I had such a good experience doing the book, I will be doing more: compilations of family, friends, and travel for sure, and I will do books of my end of year favorites and themed driven collections as well. For now, I'll focus on personal projects, but in future I may want to do themed projects and offer them for sale, though right now, I have no idea what those themed projects would be. Anything that I might sell in the future, I'd probably consider word of mouth and social media as a way to start promoting.
