I've put together some books you might be interested in, Five so far and more on the way. This seemed like the proper forum to post it in, so here we go. (:
There's a discount code you can use until the end of February:
Use coupon code "6LZFHB4T" for 25% off, ends Feb 28, 2017.
(protip: if you are not in the US and the discount code doesn't work, you can fix it by setting the Lulu Site language to US English. I've been told by buyers in Spain, Germany and Italy that this trick works to enable the coupon code to work again.)

These are definitely on my to-get list. You say more on the way. I presume more books on specific models? Any preview of which ones you're working on books for?
