Getting a % of the sales is a whole lot better than what I got when I
co-authored a book.  I got a whole $660 per chapter for the 2 chapters that
I wrote.

Teach Yourself Access 97 in 21 Days
I wrote the chapters on database design and relationships.
(3 and 5)

It was the first and last time that those 2 chapters were included in the 21
Days books.  Too bad because that is the cornerstone of development.

I have been thinking about writing one about SQL Server basics and
publishing it as an ebook/PDF myself on my WeBeDb.com site.  Anyone
interested?  Would any of you buy it for say $20 as a subscription where you
could keep downloading it and all the updates/changes/additions to it?

Robert
