First print run completed...
...and it's got a new cover. That's because Moodle Course Conversion is the first publication in the new Packt Publishing Beginner's Guide series (click here to learn more). And have just received an email to say that the first copies of the book have just been delivered from the printers. We're almost ready to start shipping!

Pre-finals Complete!
Finished reading through the pre-finals. Authors don't get involved with page layout, so was really impressed with how the book had been arranged. Just a few issues to correct - all the details sent off to Packt ready for going off to the printers on Tuesday, all being well!

Still plouging through pre-finals
Still three more chapters to read through to make sure everything is tickity-boo. Am finding quite a few typos and layout problems so it's well worth the effort. Problem is that the book is going to the printers on Tuesday (it's currently Friday approx 2.00am) so I haven't got long...

Pre-Finals Starting To Arrive
All the chapters have now gone through the complete editorial process: editing, indexing, layout and proofreading. Now all that's left is for me to give each chapter a final read-through and then sign them off ready for printing.
Six chapters received so far...
It's also very exciting to see how the book is now spreading itself through the Internet. Googling "Moodle Course Conversion" now picks up lots of links.

Rewrites finished!
Chapter rewrites are finished and sent off to the publishers (yesterday, in the middle of the night). We've still got the pre-finals to put together and then there's some proofreading to do.
Still... there's now a good deal of light at the end of the tunnel. Only a few weeks to go before it's on the shelves.
