7 Nov 1998...Overheard in channel....
<Aodhan> i
have gotten so busy these days....(i am going to be a published
author, and am editing 30 books here in the next 6 weeks..on top
of school etc. )
<SuzW> wow!
<SuzW> what book did you write?
<Aodhan> i am a co-author for a book in the Que Special
Edition Using Series.
<Aodhan> available in may/june of 99.
<SuzW> excellent
<SuzW> who did you do it with?
<Aodhan> available at a bookstore near you...;))
<SuzW> I'm gonna have to see it
<SuzW> not understand a word of it
<SuzW> but still
<Aodhan> i dont know the other guy....but it is a work in
progress....:)) he hasnt signed his manuscript yet...
<Aodhan> oh it is aimed at all levels of users...so the
first 7 chapters should be really boring for you.
<SuzW> ha
<SuzW> how did you get involved with it?
<Aodhan> i did a project for the acquisitions guy on short
notice...and it fell through.....and since i didnt complain about
not getting paid...he felt he had to make it up to me...so he
offered me this.
<SuzW> pays to be the nice guy that you are :)
<SuzW> haha
<SuzW> and of course extremely intelligent
<Aodhan> there is a possibility that they will be using my
likeness in the book...:))
<Aodhan> and i am going to be listed in the library of
congress as an author..:)
<SuzW> too cool!
<SuzW> I'll have to look you up on the internet
<SuzW> haha
* Aodhan grins...:))
<SuzW> its really great!
<SuzW> did you just recently finish it?
<Aodhan> ah no....i recently landed it....it is in progress
and should be done here in about 3 weeks...
<Aodhan> then the review process goes on for about 2 weeks
beyond that...so my part will be done by christmas.
