A long time ago, right in the thick of writing my book, I decided that in 2007 I would force myself to travel more, take classes, and basically get the heck out of the house much more often. So, I signed up for a MaxMSP workshop in Cambridge for February thinking “there’s no way I’ll still be working on the book in February!” Well, in a classic example of the task filling up the time allotted, I worked at a frenzied pace for the last few weeks finishing up up the remaining chapters of my book, “RailsSpace.” While not everything is done, and there will be more work like author reviews and accompanying web site creation later this year, it feels great to be turning all seventeen chapters.
