Guess what I did today? I finished* my book!!
The first words of the book, which I typed into my computer back in August 2024, were "For me, it all started with the dumpster/cube." Today, just before noon, I typed, "... in a way that feels like a perfect way to conclude this book, it's a cube that comes full circle." One idea for what the cover might look like, maybe. With that, I am DONE!! Okay, by that, I mean I'm done with the first draft. I'm not done with the book itself by a long shot; there are going to be months and months of revisions ahead of me. (Even that last sentence: two "ways" too close together-- ugh! ). I have to redo, or even create, a bunch of figures. I have to find a publisher who actually wants to publish it. I have to pull together an accompanying website that includes color versions of some the images and video versions of others, and I have to figure out the best way to QR-code link to them in the book. There is a LOT of work left to do. R...
