Congrats! I am also launching a book this year, mine deals more with photo-editing, but also photography in general, and is aimed at a more specific audience that want bright/fun/exciting photo books when as I got into photography as a teenager all the books out there were so boring. I had to push back my release date (it was originally supposed to be next month) but personal stuff got in the way and I’ve taken some time off.
Anyway, I am super excited to see what you guys come up with and I know I’ll be snapping up a copy of your book! x

stacey February 26, 2010 at 1:26 pm

That’s awesome news. I went on a frenzy when I started to take photography more seriously of trying to find good instructional books, and lots of books I found seemed to have been written to make money and offered nothing of real value except to maybe the just-got-an-SLR owner. So cool that you’re doing a book. Congratulations!!
