What timing! The final version of Spring Live was released on SourceBeat's site tonight. You can subscribe online and download the book in mere minutes!





Printed versions should be available in the next month. For more information on SourceBeat's print-on-demand, see http://jroller.org/page/raible/20041007#get_your_sourcebeat_books_printed.

Guess it requires lot of efforts in authoring a book! and add to the fact that you have to keep the book updated for a year might be a tough job too ?

Congrats!

I actually enjoyed writing the book a lot. However, my wife and I had a lot going on in the last couple of months which made it a bit harder to
finish up the last few chapters. First of all, our son Jack was born and we were in the process of remodeling our home.

I think doing the updates will be a lot easier b/c it should only be 20-40 hours per month rather than working all month to pump out chapters.

I think I remember some of your plans about writting (in the morning or in the night, which one is more proficient ).
