(Cross posted from SearchBlog) A happy surprise this week: my book is available for sale up on Amazon, and has been for some time. It's sales rank - at about 409,000, clearly indicates that it's not exactly tearing up the charts, but given that it's not even printed yet and I just found out about this, I suppose that's to be expected. But it's just so....real...to see it there on Amazon, with the cover and everything. Today the final, final manuscript came and I'm spending the next week poring over it, hoping to make it as good as it can possibly be. If you'd like to pre order the book now, why I'd be honored. Here's a link to the order page. Just know that the information about the book is not yet accurate - it will be longer than 288 pages (don't know where they got that, it will be more like 350), for example.

I'm terrified. But thrilled.
