Project

I've been working on a book project, off and on over the past two weeks. It's been an enormous amount of work — in the end, it came to 584 pages (almost all of them text, with a considerable amount of formatting that needed to be applied by hand), and it needed to be done as quickly as possible. I managed to produce a first pass at the book over the course of two or three long (very long) days — I spent most of the day today on the (almost) final series of corrections.

But it's also been great fun. It's the first book for the two authors, and it's obvious how enthusiastic and excited they are to see the project they've been working on for so long come to fruition. I'm pleased to share in that excitement, even if only in a small way.
