Hi, after a lot of reading threads on TFL, i've decided to post one!

So basically, I'm looking at creating a set of guides. The guides really won't take me long to write. I just wanted to know a bit about what I'm getting myself into. Could anybody who has any experience in selling eBooks or guides give me some advice? Also, is there a lot of money to be made in this?

Many thanks!
