I just finished reading it. Awesome book! Should be required reading for anyone calling themselves a designer. It's full of practical advice. I don't think I've ever highlighted a book this much.

Hey—just a quick note. Thanks again to everyone here who has checked out the book, and lent their words of support. Such interest and comments are incredibly helpful and reassuring. :-)
Writing a book is a discombobulating experience. For six months I was glued to my chair, literally working day and night, to put it together. (The toughest days started at 7AM and wrapped at 3AM.) By the time it finally released, I didn't know what to expect for it. Sure, I put my best into producing the best content I could compile, but you never really know how readers will respond.
It's good to hear that those of you who've read the book have found it worthwhile. I know there are holes in some of my arguments—there always are—but if you can grab some useful bits out of the book, which help you do your work, I'm very happy!

@spendogg Thanks—it's great to read that!
I worked really hard on that book. (To the point that my wife cringes when I mention doing another.) It makes a world of difference to hear that folks are getting something out of it. :-)

I just bought a copy. Can you send me the cash instead?
- No, but if you're ever in Vancouver, I can buy you a beer.karj
- Sounds fair. The book is great so far, by the way.Fax_Benson
- Thanks for saying so! Writing a book is a weird process; it's reassuring to get positive feedback. :-)karj

OK. I've collected the email addresses for the first six who've responded. I'll contact each of you individually by email to get your mailing address. Please give the book a couple of weeks to arrive. I'm on holidays right now, so I won't be shipping the books until I return to the office, late this week. :-)

I looked at your books site as well as smashLAB a while ago. I believe you posted it before? Anyways, would love to read it and support it anyway possible. Nice work and thanks regardless of a promo code.
