Appeal to the group mind.

I've got an offer to pitch some books; consumer how to.

So, the two subjects I think myself most likely to be able to write such a tome (or two) are some ideas on cooking, and some on photography.

What topics, in those subject areas, do you 1: see a lack (the photo books will probably have to deal with digital mostly. Feel free to consider aspects of "printmaking" as well. That would include making photos for the web), and 2: think I might have some ideas which would be worth having collected, all in one place.

I always thought the "Idiot's Guide to..." were usually better but that is solely my opinion and obviously not the opinion of the majority of book buyers.

Also if you have tricks for making your print look like what you see on the screen that would be awesome. I've seen so many beautiful on screen pics that just come out dull in print.

I do, but there are hurdles.

If you want, I can do a post about printing from digital.

Hell, if I get the deal, I'll probably build a readers' filter and fly it past people/ask for questions to be answered.
