The manuscript has been “accepted”!

Finally! What a labor. Still lots of tweaks and small revisions to come. But I submitted the manuscript on Monday and my editors at Penguin Portfolio have "accepted" it. Now it goes to the copy editor.

And in case you’re wondering, yes this meant round-the-clock writing and revising and not much of a holiday over Christmas and New Year’s.

Had the pleasure of emailing back and forth with Wired editor Chris Anderson late one night last week. He’s working towards the deadline to finish his manuscript for The Long Tail and also says he finds it a real challenge.

    Congradulations on getting it done. I co-authored a book and it was difficult enough. Are we going to see a Squidoo on the book? It got me some great publicity.

    As a first-time author, I can empathize with fellow writers….Here is a blog on ‘my story’ http://blogs.ittoolbox.com/emergingtech/technocrat/archives/007569.asp
