Don't write a tech book to make money. I don't have the exact numbers off the top of my head, but Go In Action is considered a successful tech book and it hasn't made enough money to make it worth the time invested if money was the only motivator. We donate all the royalties to a non-profit (Go Bridge <a href="https://gobridge.org" rel="nofollow">https://gobridge.org</a> ), so that was never our motivation... but I'd be seriously disappointed if I expected to make a living doing tech books with a traditional publisher. Maybe others who self-publish can chime in on how that's going for them.<p>Glad I did it. Wouldn't do it again :)
