paigetheoracle Posted March 13, 2008 Report Posted March 13, 2008 I've written the first in a series of books, teaching English that isn't selling well (In fact nought over several months - August last year). Because of my Aspergers tendencies it has come out looking like binary code (see Preview material at Lulu.com, under Tony Sandy (Logic Lists English) - go to 'Buy' section and look under Education and Language). As it is columns of similar material, do you think A) It could easily be converted into a computer program ;) It is worth trying, given current sales? (Nil after 6 months). What I envisioned was a simple press key, up comes word with sound it makes, plus image or video to explain meaning (movement for verbs/ adverbs - picture for nouns/ adjectives) Quote

What I envisioned was a simple press key, up comes word with sound it makes, plus image or video to explain meaning (movement for verbs/ adverbs - picture for nouns/ adjectives) Anything can be made into a computer program...but creating a professional product can be time consumingOnly you can decide if it is worth itI would try one of the free languages first that way you dont have to spend too much money but getting quality video of objects and the like,is costly try pictures instead and would recommend a recording studio for the sounds thing otherwise you will end up with a poor product.

Shyam Bharath Posted March 23, 2008 Report Posted March 23, 2008 I don't know but there is a famous quote on Lulu i found on wikipedia "Pubishers sell a million copies for a 100 authors". "Lulu sells a 100 copies for a million authors". Why don't you find a publisher for your book? (though i feel the software idea is great :) ) Quote
