I just saw the e-mail today that the book I helped write is going to press on Monday!! It’s called Adapting to Web Standards: CSS and Ajax for Big Sites, and I wrote a chapter about AOL.com. It’s available for pre-order now, of course, and would make a great Christmas gift for your favorite web nerd – they might even like two or three copies (really, they might).\
Writing the book (well, my chapter) was… difficult. I don’t think I’ll write another one any time soon, at least while I have a full-time job. It was a great experience, don’t get me wrong, and Christopher and Victor, our editor, handled all the hard bits. I’d always wanted to write a book, and am grateful that they gave me the opportunity to write a chapter for this one.\
I can’t wait to hold a copy in my grubby mitts and hear from folks what they think of it (good or bad).

So…if I buy one…will you autograph it for me???
I slept in the author’s basement!!!!!!!! If I had known you were on the verge of fame, I would have stolen some towels or something.

Love you guys!

Michaela, of course I’ll sign it for you… and pretty much anyone else. Who knows how many more opportunities I’ll have to sign books?
OMG! What’s it like to be you? 😀
Will you still admit to knowing me? Congrats!
