Another Milestone

Mon 12/04/06 at 5:36 pm

I am happy — oh, so, happy — to announce I have completed the second round of Author Review of my book (“my book”!), PC Magazine Windows Vista Solutions (Wiley Publishing). The first draft took about 8 weeks. The two rounds of Author Review took another 6 weeks and increased the book from 100,000 words to 160,000, if that is a measure of anything.

We’re not quite done yet, though I hope there is a small I in We. There is still some layout to be done. Then, I have to review PDFs, which will be my first opportunity to see the many screen captures in place within the text. Then a long pause before the book hits the shelves around the end of January, when Windows Vista is officially available in retail. mjh
