I thought I'd give another long-term update on this thread.
Book #1, Make it Paleo, sold over 50,000 copies last year and my fiance and I officially became "best-selling" authors! We were also able to quit our other jobs and pursue our startup full time! Talk about living the dream....
We're submitting book #2, "Gather", for print on Monday, and book #3, "The 30 Day Guide to Paleo Cooking" in 3 weeks. We've been working on both books for the last 9 months, concurrently. Gather releases April 30th, the Guide book releases mid June.
We've definitely "gone pro" with our photog equipment in the past year as well. Got a Canon 5D Mark iii a few months after it came out with the sexy 24-70mm L lens (not the 2nd gen one, though). Also picked up a solid Manfrotto tripod & geared head, and got a Glidecam HD-2000 for video shooting (I can start a whole new thread on how incredibly difficult that thing is to use).
We traveled all over the country shooting menus for Gather, and had a blast making that book. I thought I'd share some photos from the various locations we used. Oh yeah, go preorder this book so I can get some car parts this year. ;-) haha http://bit.ly/GatherCookbook
