Since the first 31 days have passed for the SoFoBoMo ‘09 project many books are being completed. I’m impressed by all of them and have spent much time looking and reading many of them. I hope to “keep-up” with the completions and eventually view each of them.
One I enjoyed very much this morning was [...]
Open publication – Free publishing – More sofobomo
I finished my SoFoBoMo ‘09 book a couple of days ago but was considering holding it for a while–I even blog about holding it yesterday. This thought was born from my own insecurities. Bonnie, my wife, got her first look at the book last night and she strongly [...]

I don’t have a detailed schedule but I’m generally satisfied with progress thus far.
I can’t honestly say I absolutely love all the [...]
The start date for my SoFoBoMo ‘09 book is May 2nd–that’s the date of the earliest photo to be used. I’m still working on a final title for the book and will update my SoFoBoMo account and here once it’s decided.
