Well.. not really *my* book. It’s not like I wrote it or anything like that. I was the technical editor on this new book, “Beginning C# 3.0: An Introduction to Object Oriented Programming” by Jack Purdum.
While most people that read this blog will probably not read the book (it’s targeted for _very_ new programmers), there was a ton that I learned while doing the book… but mostly about what it takes to work on a book. It takes a lot!
It also gave me a great appreciation for all of the authors, editors and publishers out there and the effort that they go through to bring us great titles.

@Ed – very cool. What’s the book that you are working on now? (I’m guessing an updated Silverlight book?) Are you planning on writing your own? 😉
