the error would be to make a work which repeats the first too much, which could exempt some from buying it, they could think they could abstain from it and be satisfied with a small summary, so I wish you really good luck for this second opus and I understand your embarrassment you have so much to say but how to organize this "mess" even bigger than your first book gave birth

when we open Pandora's box we have to assume : Mrgreen:

This is exactly one of the hiccups! I approached, without digging into them, the practical aspects. Suddenly, the repetition hangs on my nose ...

Moreover, I would like to introduce the "improvements" (eg, the possible use of straws with "nitrogen pumps", etc.): here too, how to do it without repeating ???

Finally, I want to give myself time to work on the illustrations this time: precise photos and diagrams ... It takes time. Pictures, I have thousands but not always the right one. And for the diagrams, I have to subcontract. I draw very badly!

Yes, that's what made me decide to postpone the deadline, when I had given an "agreement in principle which is not a promise!" for release in 2019 ...

While looking at any chance if a quote or a publication justified the rise in the classification, I came across this information, concerning a "Potager du Laesseux", via the CPIE of the Monts du Pilat.

The guy is correct, he cites the source of inspiration and mentions the book. But this dates from this summer and therefore does not explain the current interest in the book. FYI, it's near Firminy.

yes you had already announced it, but I think that you have not yet mineralized the first volume and therefore knowing each other (a little, if we can say since the time that you mycorrhizes us) you are not going to rush the work, 2020 season would be better timing indeed

you can negotiate volume February 2, 2020 and volume February 3, 2021, thus you prepare a super volume 2, which leaves you any leisure to leave in all the directions and you can arbitrate by making the third volume with the evolutions of the PP, because I finds that this PP is evolving a lot,

Excerpt from an email from my editor that I asked about sales, related to the rebound on Amazon:

"... there was a surge in sales this week 500 ex restocking this week which is really great! The title is back in the top of how-to books and bestsellers! Maybe it's the end of year effect! At this rate we will have to reprint at the very beginning of next year "

So the Amazon ranking is not completely virtual (tonight, 420th)!
