Are you kidding, no comprehensive study on Torah and Work? Yechezkel Fogel long ago wrote (המלאכה העבודה והאומנות במשנת חז"ל (ולאורה של ראשונים ואחרונים over 400 packed pages. (Fogel was one of the pioneers of Charedi education, and was/is the director of the Charedi college in Kiryat Ono.)
I would stick to the animals. You have no special expertise on subject of Torah and work, and be real, your well known bias on the subject automatically renders null anything you would have to say. It would be ignored by all but a few in the choir. By contrast, you did an outstanding job on the encyclopedia, this is clearly where your true passion lies, and you obviously have more knowledge and experience in this area than most others. Get Volume II completed and distributed first, then the Hebrew version, then the smaller related items you seem interested in, and then go from there.
Some explanation of the halachic Torah terminology used would useful to those of us who while enjoy your blog, but are less educate, would be useful and encourage us to pay.
I would love an exhibit book of the exhibits at the Museum for those of us who cannot make it there. (Sort of like the Ark book, but covering everything.)
Rabbi, I am a fan and long time reader of your content. After hearing how these important projects are languishing I would recommend changing formats.
With minimal effort you could be producing content via youtube/podcast that would open you up to a much larger audience (it can even be automatically transcribed for blog posting)
How about publishing a book about maintaining grudges and not moving on with life?

Your patience is endless with these comments.
If you do write a book about Torah and work, I hope it's a little better researched than your last piece! Maybe hire a ghostwriter this time.
You should have continued hatzlacha
My vote is for "Volume II of The Torah Encyclopedia of the Animal Kingdom".
Volume one was amazing and I would really wish for the next one in this series🙏.
Think the oilam here will get a kick out of the following irony

Donated yesterday. I've only heard good things about the museum. Wishing you continued hatzlacha.
Project Suggestions:
