I self publish and sell the book online and locally for $20 plus $5.75
priority shipping. Sarah Van Keuren gave me this idea, as she does the
same. I also now have a teacher using it as her text in VT. Yes, the
policy still remains in place that a teacher cannot profit from her
students, and the only way to work around that is to have it published
outside of the U and have the publisher pay a royalty to the author. Which
all teachers do, it seems. I have the book, actually, at two publishers at
the moment for review, and the advantage to publishing is that I could
include some of the 300 plus images I have to support text, but the
disadvantage would be that my 212pp would have to be drastically cut down
and it would certainly rise in cost. But it would get a wider audience.

I think I answered this, above--comfortable with where I am at, but still
pursuing the option of its being in "technicolor".
