I've been using GnuCash for personal expenses and for a home-based hobby business for the past several years now. I'm about to add another business activity which will be more serious (I'm self-publishing a book). I'm planning to open a separate business banking account for this activity and I want to use an entirely separate GnuCash book to keep track of income and expenses. Note: This will be a sole proprietorship (at least for now) as is my current hobby business.

My question is: How do I integrate this with my current GnuCash register? It will be more than a year before I generate any (significant) income, even if things go well, so there's going to be a lot of crossover and funds transferred from my personal accounts, both cash and credit. There are also other items, such as telephone and Internet service, which can/should be expensed across both activities. I'm also wanting to track investment and net equity in this activity in the event that I eventually sell out to an established publisher or else formally incorporate the business.

I can/will speak with the accountant that I'm using for his recommendations, but he's completely unfamiliar with GnuCash; when I mentioned it his reaction was, "What...?" So I want to see how this can and should be done under the GnuCash interface.
