Blogs make the jump from bytes to print easily. There’s even a name for a blog which has become a book: it’s a “blook.”
If you’ve got a blog which lends itself to print publication, you don’t have to do anything at all – sooner or later a print publisher will come calling on you, making you an offer you (maybe) can’t refuse.
Perhaps you make the decision yourself, to turn your blog into a book you self-publish, because you want something you can hold in your hand.
You can also decide to blog a topic or an idea to find out whether it has legs: whether it’s a worthy topic for a book. If you get readers, then you’ve done some simple market research – there’s a market for your book.
