First chapter – That’s a wrap!

Ok, so after some initial troubles getting used to all the technical aspects of writing a book, I have now completed the first chapter in the book. The chapter is actually Chapter 4, so I’m not starting with the beginning, and I’ll be sure to explain why in a later post.

In any case, I got some feedback from my editor. And no, I will still not disclose who the publisher is, so the editor will remain anonymous for now. Here’s what editor said:

“The text is highly readable, and is “laugh out loud funny” (arguably), which is extremely rare for a tech book. Certainly, people will wade through the dsicussions with much more interest, and you have done an excellent job of balancing tech with humor.”

That’s right out of his mail to me. Seems that at least he enjoys the rather unique approach to getting content across.

Oh, and this information was posted to the mailinglist last night. You would have heard it sooner if you had signed up.
