I am using this holiday break to make progress on writing "CJKV Information Processing" Second Edition. Here is my publisher's page for First Edition: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/cjkvinfo/
I have been working on Chapter 3, which I consider to be the core of the book, and sets the stage for revising the other chapters and appendixes. In fact, it could stand alone as a book in and of itself. I am typesetting the book as I write (that is my writing style), and Chapter 3 broke 100 pages yesterday afternoon, and currently has 114 tables. (For comparison, Chapter 3 of First Edition had 73 pages.) I used Adobe FrameMaker to typeset First Edition, and this time I am using Adobe InDesign CS3.
Anyway, while I am getting lots of things to photograph, such as the Black + Black/Tan G-10 Hell Razor that arrived yesterday, the 31st through 33rd BCS Game Wardens that may arrive today, and a couple new Randalls, I need to focus on getting Chapter 3 done, so that I can start Chapter 4, whose revision is important, but much less extensive when compared to Chapter 3.
Don't worry, though. When I find free time, or simply need a break from writing, I will use a couple hours to take some photos of the new toys.
One of these days I need to learn to type, though I may be too old (42) to do so at this point.
