Book at the Printers
Thursday, after a last minute fire drill when it looked like Chapter 4 was going in the book almost unedited due to version control issues, Speaking In Styles is finally off to the printers and out of my hands. I can now relax a bit, and catch up on all of my other projects.
I am proud of what I have done in this book. It’s the first time I did all of the book design—even did the cover, which is extremly rare. This one is all me, but it did not happen with out a lot of help and some pain.
For my next book, which I’ll talk more about in a week or so, I’m thinking I will embrace InDesign more fully. Not only will I use the new Adobe CS4 book capabilities, but I’ve started playing with InCopy for writing and hope I can convince my editors to embrace it. We had a lot of issues working in Acrobat, but I just can not go back to using MS Word.
Any advice my readers can give on InCopy would be most appreciated.

Congratulations Jason! Looking forward to buying a copy when it’s out.
