    Wow sounds wonderful.

    What is the rational behind the book vs mag style of publishing? I would of thought the book was a sensible financial decision.

    Something I don't get is how come if the "The Monaro Story" is pulling large dollers because of the demand it isn't reprinted like a Harry Potter book so Warren can benifit from the increased sales.

    Also in my opinion if you make it into a book can you bind the bloody thing properly. People who want to own a copy will pay for a hard cover version anyway. I have friends with Warren's book that have pages falling out of them everywhere.... you need to keep the bloody thing in a plastic bag so you dont lose pages when browsing it on the throne...

    It is actually more Ben's book than Warren's, at least the work in typing it!

    Idea of magazine is to make it cheaper and to stay away from greedy publishers.

    The reason Ben won't republish is the book has brought out so much more info, that the whole book needs re-doing. He also lost out on the first one, and isn't interested. Warren has other reasons as well.
