Writing is my passion. I really find writing (and speaking) a great way to communicate my ideas to the world wide technical community. When I began writing, My main aim was to (and still) share my technical experience with people in order to help them rapidly finding solutions for some of their technical problems, and in order to know their feedback and learn from their opinions.
Because sharing experiences is a great thing, I always encourage my colleagues to start and update their technical blogs in order to document their technical experiences and to share them with the technical community.
Finally, I can say that the best thing about writing is simply making people happy after finding solutions for problems that they may stay nights in order to fix, or after understanding and applying a good technique that helps them doing a better job.

One of my main passion areas is generally speaking, writing, and sharing my experience and ideas with people. This is why I find writing books an interesting activity.
Because of my writing passion, I always prefer working with publishing companies that have a flexible and an agile publishing process. The flexible and agile publishing process really helps a lot in optimizing the required time for converting any author's draft ideas to a final quality published book which is a must for making books relevant because we are living in a world that has a lot of technology updates every day.
Writing a technical book in a very long time can really be a big factor for its failure because it may not be able to answer many new questions by the technical community and may not represent the current state of technology in its publishing time.
Adding to preferring the flexible publishing process, and because I'm personally a supporter for open source projects (which makes a new world map without borders because in Open source projects all the interested people in world contributes to a common target for making the world better), I always prefer working with publishing companies that support open source projects. I really like the idea of paying a royalty directly to open source projects for the sales of their related books.
