Technology changes the world and reforms the body. If you’re looking for a great book
that will help guide you through the dramatic changes in creating content and personality on the web — and in your real life — I invite you to purchase my new book, Picture Yourself Learning Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac!
We just finished writing the Google Apps Administrator Guide for Thomson Publishing and we are now Daring David Pogue. We have composed the following missive to the master Mac author:
Dear David Pogue:
We are daring you — actually, DOUBLE SECRET daring you (and when “we” say dare we mean “I’ but there is more power in the collective imagination) — to ignore us.
We are coming at you — hard and heavy in all your safe places and in The New York Times Square tower — by writing two new Apple books for Thomson/Cengage Publishing due to hit international bookshelves soon:
Picture Yourself Learning Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard
and
Picture Yourself Learning Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac
We are hungry. We are dedicated. We are fast. We will outlive you!
Thank you.
Sincerely,
David W. Boles (aka “The WordPunk“) Boles Books Writing and Publishing http://BolesBooks.com
NOTE: We have yet to actually send that note directly to Mr. Pogue for we are in fear of appearing ungrateful and inappropriate in the light of our ongoing love of his previously hard-won books on the Mac OS and Apple.
P.S.: We also mention here and now we are writing another new book for Thomson called Picture Yourself Learning American Sign Language, Level 1 and it includes a Bonus DVD for learning the signs and phrases. Janna M. Sweenie is once again our co-author after our raging success writing Hand Jive: American Sign Language for Real Life together.
It has been a wild week and I am pleased to announce I will be writing three 
new books for Thomson/Cengage Publishing.
I recently finished my Google Apps Administrator Guide book for Thomson and we are now doing three more books together.
Two books will be published before the end of 2007 — that means I will have written four books in five months for Thomson and while that is a witty and wacky writing pace, that’s the publishing business: You’re either wanted now — RIGHT NOW! — or you suffer in silence.
I learned a couple of new terms the other day and they were new to me because I am self-employed and I work alone all day and I answer to only myself because I often talk to myself. I am a tough boss and a hard worker. I would give myself a raise and a bonus if I weren’t such a taskmaster. The new terms I learned were “Office Husband” and “Work Wife” and I want to know if you have one or not!
