Thank you so much for taking the time to respond! I have no short-term monetization strategy (goes on the list). I need about a month to get the book ready, and I’ve got the pitch and query/proposal done, as well as the buyer persona. My strategy beyond the book itself (I should have mentioned this, sorry) is that I’m also a partner in two other ventures — one for digital products, one for physical products (and this one has been successfully test-marketed over the past year), and my plan (hope?) is that all three together will suffice. Our kids are thankfully grown (just now, of course, as we had planned to amp up savings) and while I’d love to earn what I was earning, it’s not strictly necessary; we can live pretty nicely making about half what I was making. Last, because I can’t of course guarantee that any of this will work, I am keeping my hand in the corporate world, applying for suitable positions each week. As you can probably tell, I’m bumbling along here, something that’s worked really well my entire life, until now. But I firmly believe that everything happens for a reason, and works out like it’s supposed to, so I’ve got faith. For now, anyway! Thank you so very much again; this is great advice.
