I would love to see some of your background, ie. what made you competent to write such book. Some info regarding content would be also a nice to have - I know, what your book covers, but how is it structured? How many pages it has?


The paperback is ~120 pages at 6x9. The ebook is ~43 pages. My background I just linked here - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6399538, but basically the gist is I quit my job a bit over 2 years ago with very little income, and I'm making a nice living on it now.


To make my point more clear - my intention was not criticizing you, or doubting in your competences - from potential buyers point of view, if would be nice to have this informations somewhere on landing page. I did check your "background" before writing above comment and in my opinion you could add some more info, that would make you more trustworthy for visitors from outside of HN.


Ah I see, you weren't asking for the info specifically, just suggesting I need more of it on the landing page. Thanks for the suggestion.

Do you have anything specifically you'd like to see in the "About the author" section that isn't there?
