Looking for some non-Jeep feedback

[Eagle]

I'm looking for some feedback on a potential book concept. I'm not a master of science fiction, or any fiction genre. I enjoy writing, but I seem to be more of an explainer than a creator. Having lived on a rather limited (and limiting) budget for a number of years, I have become a huge fan of freeware software. Although some freeware is complete dreck, some of it is really excellent.

I don't know how many people are even aware of freeware, or just how prolific the freeware community is. Since I use several freeware programs in my home office (and could use more if I shed a few commercial programs that I still use), I have what may be a better appreciation than most for what's out there. The thought occurred to me that there might be a potential market for a book informing people who might be looking to set up a home office or small business on a tight budget of what programs are out there that can be used to equip a home office -- for free or nearly free.

 

The intended target audience would probably be older folks (like me), who are maybe retired or soon-to-be retired, who have used Microsoft Office at work and who don't want to shell out big bucks to buy MS Office for home, and don't want to get sucked into a subscription for Office 365. So I would be discussing office suites, and then also get into graphics programs, CADD programs,  possibly video editing programs, and accounting.

Does anyone think there would be a market for such a book?

Always a need, plenty of people to be reached. Short informational digital book perhaps. What about the relevance overtime being programs being outdated? 

How about a book about living on a budget more so. How much does it really cost, how much would you need to sacrifice for the budgeting. 🤔

The good freeware programs are all updated regularly. I use several of them.

I definitely think that would be a good idea, along with Mini's living on a budget idea.

I have never needed 4wd. Agreed it wound be nice to have in case you did need it. You have that decision to make. I bought my truck 32 years ago new been driving it hunting down old logging roads, you name it. Never stuck it where I couldn't get it out. Oh I have spun the wheels plenty but never had to have a tow. Of course, there are places I wouldn't try to take it but just have use common sense. Besides, I have a 4 wheeler for getting the deer out.

I won't pretend to know if there's a market for it, but you should absolutely do the things that you want to do.

Somehow I posted this in the wrong place, Sorry. Old folks sometimes miss the mark.
