I’ll take some to Fielders in Wimbledon, that’s just across the road from where I took my snap. No royalties but free publicity.
Good Idea – you get my vote!

LET'S NOT START IMPOSING RULES NOW PLEASE!!!!
The concerns that that Bob raised are lacking in logic somewhat. I doubt that there'll be huge sales of the book and in any case royalties must be split 41 ways. If there's $1 royalties on each book and we sell 100 books, that's $2.40 each.
I suggest that anyone who feels unhappy about the book being sold and making no royalties etc., should pull out now so that there's no ugly money wrangling later. I am quite happy to go with no royalties.
1. we impose rules about selling the book and prevent people from selling it to bookshops or whoever wants to buy it etc.,
2. We have a "NO RULES" attitude as originally agreed.
In model 1 No significant quantity of books are sold due to restrictions
RESULT: a) nobody sees our names or work. b) we make no money out of it
In model 2 there are 2 possible scenarios.
SCENARIO 1- nobody wants to buy the book so results are the same as a) and b) above
SCENARIO 2- The book is "Discovered" and becomes a bestseller (Yeah RIGHT!) In which case a) multitudes of people get to see our names and images and we're famous. b) we still make no money out of it directly
It's a win-win situation. Let's not get greedy here! Regard the book as a group business card. You print it so people can see it. The more you get out there the more successful it is.
If you can sell a few copies via your local book shop or via a chain of bookshops. good for you. It's a possibility that's equally open to all of us. If you want to profit then you'll have to do some selling!
