If it quacks like a sociopath, but also ponders its own sociopathy, it's probably just an asshole.

We're in the semi-final stages, but the hardware hangup has halted our hard work. Basically --

-finalize one or two pieces
-finish introduction and outro
-replace a few graphics
-doodle in the margins
-print out the book and squint at it whilst sitting on the toilet
-send it to lulu.com
-distribute the PDF for free

we're actually quite close

I wouldn't agree with the hardware being the cause of the hang-up. That happened just a few weeks ago. It's going to be two months soon that I haven't had any participation on this project. If people didn't have the time because other things required their attention, they could have told me. But I've kind of been left out in the cold here.

By the way, the plans for the doodling in the margins is quite work intensive. It also isn't just in the margins, it involves interactions with the text body so the content must be finalized before that begins.

Also, the design files need to be rebuilt for production which also is a huge amount of work.

It has the appearance of being almost finished, but in terms of labor, it's about halfway.

ah - yes, the hardware is just one slice of the pie. But the lack of forward motion hasn't been intentional, it seems like stuff just quieted down a bit, then more intermittent, and now we're looking at a two month gap in hindsight. For my part, I've had a ton of IRL drama, fiasco, and stress that demanded the lion share of my energy. RAW was right - when your biosurvival gets threatened (in this case the threat of eviction), all your drives refocus.
