How I Plan On Finishing My 3rd Edition Guidebook

Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.
I’m a Brit who came to live on the Spanish island of La Palma who self publishes books about the island. My guide book to the astronomical observatory here has done so well that I’m now working on the 3rd edition to include the newest telescopes and discoveries. I followed that with an anthology of children’s stories set on the island and I have more books planned.
I also work as a self-employed tour guide, at the observatory, excursions for cruise ship passengers, and occasionally private tours. I enjoy the tour guiding, but the income is erratic. I also enjoy writing, but it's very sedentary and solitary. The combination is much more rewarding than either alone, and I find the guiding helps to sell the books and the books help to sell my guiding services. It's an unusual combination, but it works for me. I don't have all that much money but I have a great quality of life.
