Cookbook Advice Needed

You guys give the best advice. Thanks. E. woke up at 7:45 this morning. CRAZY!!! I think he's done that ONCE before. Seriously. Were several of you (besides Julia) praying? Keep it up!!

Anyway, I need more advice! I'm finally sending off the cookbook to the printer (Yeah!) There are 207 awesome recipes. So, I can't decide how many of these to print. I'm stuck trying to decide between 250 and 300. I know that may not seem like a big deal, but it is when you're spending your money on it! So, I want to make the most money possible for Made in the Streets, but I don't want to have too many. I know for sure that I'm going to want like 30. No joke. The people buying it are people from the gym, from church...and maybe you? What do you think?

Go all out. You'll probably save a little money per piece if you produce more. You don't want to run out too quickly. And hit up your blog buddies to help you promote. Have a little faith! You'll probably need more!

Have faith! You will need all 300! You will be surprised how word will get out. Let us know when it's for sale.

i know that we're buying three or four, and i'd guess many people would buy more than one copy. i'd also second the thought that word will start to spread and that you shouldn't expect to have a hard time moving them.

(that being said, i'll make you a heck of a deal on a box of newton dominey cds. i believe i have about 744 left...)

Sorry we missed you at church. We were out of town for a wedding. There's no rush in getting the rattle back though.

I think it's great that you've put together this cookbook. We will definitely buy one, and I think you will need more than 30 copies too. As others have said, the word will spread. Also, I think many people are really interested in learning how to cook more vegetarian and vegan dishes now. It should be a big success! :o)
