Getting Closer

The Modest Proposal Institute is getting closer to being a paperback. The cover designer is working on the back cover of the book and, when that’s done, I can finish building the book on Amazon.

So far, the process has been extremely painless. Say what you like about modern technology, and most of us do say some pretty wild things about it, it makes simple so many once-skilled tasks. As I work my way through the book-building process on Amazon, I can’t help remembering all this used to take armies of people to complete. I suspect the publishing world must have taken a huge downsizing over the past 20 years, though I haven’t heard of it.

Provided the cover is complete this week, you should be able to get a hardcopy of your favourite book (i.e. The Modest Proposal Institute, in case you were wondering:-) this week or early next. I hope you’re as excited as I am.
