I think you're work is out there for all to see @denmarkguy and whether in book form or as individual, stand alone pieces they convey your thoughts, feelings and message in the moment which may be no bad thing in itself.
I imagine that you yourself are a fan of physical books and would love to see your own in physical print but I also think and believe that you may agree, that there is a false assumption among many that being a published author makes you more qualified to speak on a given subject than the everyday man in the street.
I don't feel this is the case and therefor I don't believe it is necessary to be a published author in the traditional sense in order to have a worthwhile, valid and informed opinion on any given subject matter as you so often do.
I'm sure a carefully selected, edited and updated collection of your posts on steemit would make for a very interesting book! :)
I much prefer to read a physical book myself but to be honest I don't do as much as I should which is ironic given my post about traditional skills from a few days ago.
Hope you are doing well! :[)
Thanks @tonyr... I'm a bit old-fashioned and the whole idea of "writing a book" is probably connected mostly to the idea of something tangible to hold in my hands so I can say "I made that!" And that's purely for myself, not for anyone else... or to project expertise, or to convince anyone that I know what I'm talking about.
One of these days, I will probably assemble a collection of articles I've written and publish them as a book of "Writings on Sensory Processing Sensitivity." Or something like that. After some 20 years, I already have the audience... last time I "Googled myself" (Things we could never say to our parents!) it returned over 200K hits, most of which were mine... so it's just a matter of getting off my duff and stop making lame excuses!
I'm not surprised you have so many hits on Google as you are pretty prolific here on steemit at least and if this level of writing has beeen consistent over 20 years you must have a substantial back catalogue to choose from. :)
