Dream On

"Dream until your dream comes true . . ."

I think that it is possible to combine one's passion, interests, and livelihood.  Writers and artists and musicians come to mind.  Not that this is easy, I'm just saying that it can be done.

I am looking at writing and publishing as a way to do this.  I could write my first book, and then self-publish it by creating a company to publish and distribute the book.  Then if that works ok for me, then I could help other people to publish their writing either through my company or through other publishing companies.

Now a simpler model is to write a book and find a publisher.  However, I think that I prefer to publish my own work for various reasons.  I have worked in several start-ups and for a long time I have been interested in starting my own company.  A publishing company can be quite scalable.  Start small and then ramp up if there is sufficient demand.  Otherwise, just keep it small. 

So this is what I am looking into.
