At least for me, those blog posts that become a book are not of very high quality. Very bad actually.

For example, books (at least used to) have editors, and reviews by multiple specialists in the field. I can’t think of distinct step between personal writing and something publishing, so I cannot add meaningful comments to your question.

Take a few weeks break between each write, you will start to see areas that are clear and those that you will not like. Connect the flow of paragraphs and chapters to each other - hard to see all this when you first write it down; but after taking a reasonable break - you will start to see which areas to change.

I get your point on not being a teacher, but I would recommend doing it as blog posts then and not a book, a book implies something much more. Or maybe I’m just old school and not for the current times. After all, there are countless of ebooks of questionable quality on various programming topics.

You need to write it a few more times so it is clearer. Also I’m sorry if this is harsh, but technical books should be written by experts who have taught the subject for many years and understand the best way to communicate the subject matter. Otherwise better leave it as a series of blog posts.

I bought and read your book. Unfortunately it is long winded and poorly written, so I advise others not to spend time and money on it. Bit disappointed that it gets misleading treatment online, I was expecting a book by an expert, but I guess lesson learnt when making judgement based on what is written online - those who post more aren’t necessarily any expert in the field!
