I chose to work with David Mullins, who is a graphic designer. The result is that I can now report that the proposed eBook (which will be most readily available as a PDF) has a title, cover and more than 90 per cent of its contents. The cover says it all for now:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-55993\" src=\"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screenshot-2021-03-12-at-13.56.39-550x736.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"736\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screenshot-2021-03-12-at-13.56.39-550x736.png 550w, https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screenshot-2021-03-12-at-13.56.39-224x300.png 224w, https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screenshot-2021-03-12-at-13.56.39-768x1028.png 768w, https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screenshot-2021-03-12-at-13.56.39-1147x1536.png 1147w, https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screenshot-2021-03-12-at-13.56.39-1529x2048.png 1529w, https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screenshot-2021-03-12-at-13.56.39-299x400.png 299w, https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Screenshot-2021-03-12-at-13.56.39.png 1752w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><br \/>\nI hope that this will be out very soon. I have a weekend of writing to do.<\/p>\n<p>Contrary to some advice I will not be engaging an editor. The vast majority of the content of this book will come from threads and articles already published, and except to correct typos and any minor errors I do not want to change them. The object is to retain the energy of the original posts. I have nothing at all against editors, but I don\u2019t think revisions will help achieve that objective.<\/p>\n<p>The book will be free, and be available to share as long as no charge is made. Donations will be accepted, of course, but that is not the purpose of this exercise, which is to make clear that the government and the opposition (as well as most other UK political parties) have got their economic policies horribly wrong, and that there is a real alternative. Education is the aim. So when it's out you will be most welcome to share it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Earlier this week I asked if anyone who reads this blog might be willing to help me with the creation of an ebook that would<br \/><a class=\"moretag\" href=\"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/2021\/03\/13\/coming-soon-money-for-nothing-and-my-tweets-for-free\/\"><em> Read the full article&#8230;<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[25,35,174,195,106],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-55992","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blogging","category-economics","category-modern-monetary-theory","category-money-for-nothing","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55992","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55992"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/55992\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55992"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=55992"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.taxresearch.org.uk\/Blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55992"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
