I'm drowning in photo books right now." The answer: NO, YOU ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO BUY ANYTHING! While I called it our "yearbook", this isn't like the old High School yearbooks that required a certain print order. The beauty of micropublishing is that there is no investment required. The books are printed individually, upon an order. If none sell, that's no problem for me. If one sells, that's fine. If a hundred sell, that's fine too. There's no school sponsor browbeating you to buy one "for the sake of our class and school spirit." I'm happy just assembling the thing, provided that we have enough submissions (at least 30, or less than 3% of the LUG list) to make it interesting. So far, after two days, we're at eight. Only 22 to go!
