On Publishing an Interview Book - Expertise Sought

Okay, here's a topic I'm looking around for feedback on. I've talked to a couple of friends on Twitter who do the things I do, but this is going out to writers, freelancers journalists, authors. Here's my situation. I've been positive podcasting for a long time during that time. I've done hour plus interviews with a bunch of high profile movers and shakers in my industry

Looking to repurpose old interviews I conducted and I’m interested on advice about covering my bases. #writing #publishing

And all of a sudden you have a bunch of ambassadors running around saying, I'm going to book, I'm going to book. So there's a beautiful possibility of a groundswell because you have other people involved in your book Besides you and you're playing upon their egos and their involvement and the virtues of why they're interesting as people. So it's a win win

Spot on!

Hey, Deborah, thanks for sharing your experience about this. And it did kind of ring a familiar chord because one fun thing I've gotten to do as a freelancer after I'd worked for a while was I got to contribute a chapter to to a book called The Ultimate Freelancers Guidebook by Yolanda Black. And that was really the whole business model for that book, which she handpicked a number of people who were going to write chapters for the book, and then they just put that out
