Definitely do it.

Few people you may want to talk to get smarter on the process:

1) Dave Eggers. I know he'd be happy to give you advice and who knows
McSweeney's may be interested.

2) Howard Yoon who is on the 826 Board with me. He's a well respected
non-fiction agent here in DC and would give you some advice too I bet.

3) Javelin - the guys who contacted me about wanting to represent JRB for
his book.

Let's do it. Two questions:

1) If it's book-worthy to one publisher, is it worth asking around
(quietly) to find the best place/idea?

2) There may be a sliding scale calculation here -- your dad is a valuable
part of this story but you'd be much more free to use him as a central part
of it if we wait until 2017. Understanding that books take a long time to
put together, would you want to wait until 2017 to publish?
