Hi there. My name is Scott Duffy, and welcome to my book writing log. I have documented the process of writing my last two books on this site, and have started my third. This book will be called Visual Studio Team System In Action, and should be available in 2005.

Chapter 8 ended up being a staggering 7,000 words. I guess when talking about Web Forms, there really is no short way to say anything. One of JavaScript's main purposes in life is to manipulate web forms, so I had to say what had to be said.

I submitted Chapter 8 on Dec 12th. It took me, sadly, almost three weeks to write that one chapter. As I said in the last blog installment, I really did allow myself to get sidetracked with football, CSI, Amazing Race, Survivor -- basically, TV is my arch-nemesis.

By the way, what is the difference between a nemesis and an arch-nemesis? I really don't know, except I guess anything "arch" has an evil connotation attached to it. Television is evil.
