All, thank you for the support. Things have been progressing well...

I said I was going to do it, and I’m doing it. I’m starting my updates with the Inkshares update default. Until I get bored of it, at least.

I’m currently making some changes, some fixes, adding in a few little things, writing in the About the Author and the "Hey thanks" section, and coming up with chapter titles (two more to go!). Once I get that done, I’m going to send it off to get a proof copy made to get an idea about how big it’s going to be so I know what dimensions to give to to the cover artist I’ve found. While I’m at it, I’ll mark the proof up with red ink to give it one more last look before it’s ready for print. There will probably be two or three more last looks after that. I take last looks at my work like smokers take last cigarettes. I might well order a few extra proof copies, mark ’em all up with red, and then have a giveaway so you can see how even after several years of looks, I’m still catching new typos. Who knows? You may even catch hints at future books in the margin notes. Anyone interested in possibly winning a free red-inked copy? Or are there any other promotions you’d like to see? As I’m sure you’re aware by now, I’m a good idea man, but a terrible promoter. What would you like to see? Let’s make this our campaign, because without you, the early adopters, the supporters, it’d just be me throwing keystrokes at a hard drive with no one to enjoy it. So thanks for supporting and listening.
