I have written an introductory Python tutorial and I’m working on one for wxPython. My Python tutorial was used at a college for a programming introduction class.
I know the answer is probably “if you want to”, but I’m curious to know if I should take the time to formalize my tutorials into a book format, most likely as an ebook. I don’t know enough to compete with the “big boys” of publishing but I think the format would be better structured and easier to learn if it was in a book style. I especially don’t expect to make any money with it, though I wouldn’t mind it 
.
However, I don’t want to waste my time doing something that ultimately won’t be of much use to people. I know there are many tutorials and books available, especially for these two topics. Is there room for another set of beginner books?
Update For those who are interested/curious, I have been working on the book and have drafted several chapters. The web site is http://python-ebook.blogspot.com. Comments are welcome.
