The New Edition of CheapEats Ottawa.
It's time for a happy dance and a big whoop of joy!
After working on this book for over 20 months, we have just delivered the book to the printers. (We still don't have an availability date for the book yet, but should have one tomorrow - fingers crossed.)
Now, I don't believe this is the end of the work - there will be more proofs to review, corrections, errors we find after we've signed everything off, and of course the errors that make it all the way to the final book... because no matter how careful you are, there's always something.... but
- The book looks FANTASTIC!
- I laughed out loud at a profile this morning. That's a real sign of the quality of the writing!
- It's done and now we get to plan the party!!! Woo HOO!! (That's "Book Launch" for the uninitiated.)
Thanks for your patience, your great recommendations and enthusiasm. I can't wait to hear what you think of the final product.
