My latest chess book, "I Wonder What'll Happen if Start With This?" has just past the 1 sold mark (I bought one as a present for a friend I don't like anymore) and only after 2 years. My publisher says that it might be a good idea to now go to paperback. I said, "Why? We're on a roll". He hung up on me.😳

Originally posted by @torunnWhy thank you for the offer. I will, when the time comes, ask for your expertise. I have a thought for a new book, floating around in my head, where the story will take place in Southern France or Italy, two places that I believe you are familiar with.
