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.

My agent has sent me a proposal for another book. Geez. I keep promising my wife I will definitely take a few months off writing so that we can do things together, like a vacation or something. But if I take this book, that won't happen for a while (again).

The nice thing about this new book is that (a) it's short (~300 pages) and (b) i'll have a co-author. That makes it twice as short. In fact, my portion of this book will run in length about two chapters of my current book.

Anyways, I have to think carefully about accepting the gig. I wonder if I can take it on while writing the current book? And I wonder if I can take it on without telling my wife?

Scott
