Are you paying this "book coach"? Is this a get rich quick thing? It would make more sense if you were taking a class. But this sounds like you are paying somebody to teach you to write a book. You are more interested in writing a book, any book, rather than filling a need for a particular topic.
Needs to get a refund...I could do better as a coach...rofl

Thanks, avi. I was hoping you'd correct me on some of that.

Shalom to you too.

The book is going fine.

It's my first book and is a learning process.

Hopefully the book will help someone. If one person gets diagnosed because of the book and it helps their life I will be happy.

You realize that you will be one paying $$$$ to have the book published and copies printed. Once you have the copies...what are you going to do with them?
Have you thought any of this out? Do you have the thousands of dollars available for this? Why don't you just get a real job and forget all this nonsense?

pumbany they are still ribbing you about writing your book. Be sure to cite your sources from this forum correctly in your book. We all want to see our screen names listed when you publish it.

example:
Include the title of the message, and the URL of the newsgroup. Please note that titles for items in online communities (e.g. blogs, newsgroups, forums) are not italicized. If the author's name is not available, provide the screen name. Place identifiers like post or message numbers, if available, in brackets. If available, provide the URL where the message is archived (e.g. "Message posted to..., archived at...").

LSAT,

If I can help one person learn about sleep apnea and get diagnosed and treated then I will be happy. This is not about money.

Apparently, Pumbany is totally clueless about plagiarism.
If his book ever makes a dime, he will lose it in court.
Intellectual property rights are recognized in most civilized countries.
Probably no big deal in this case.

Make the book a big thick Coffee Table book, print 100 of them, hollow one out, put a nasal mask in it. Give them to your friends, give the other 99 to others. Then maybe you can help one person with Sleep Apnea, like you say you want to. There will be less O2 in the air, due to the trees that make up the paper, but life is sacrifice. Jim
