Um . . . hell, no! Er, that is, I have had many occasions to examine the nonfiction side of the publishing industry, and I have no desire to enter into it. I especially have no desire to try to convince someone of the marketability of my platform.
There has been some discussion of creating a series of e-books from the workshops, possibly to sell through Holly's shop (though I don't know if anyone has discussed that with her yet; so far as I know it's mostly been a "kick ideas around" sort of discussion). If that does happen, I would be more than happy to do whatever editing might be needed on the workshop and put it up for sale.
But create a marketing plan, including researching the top competitors and explain how my product fits into a niche and will be competitive? No, thanks.
But thanks for the vote of confidence in my abilities. :-D
