Scott Duffy's Book Writing Log

An account of my experiences writing computer programming books.

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.

I purchased a book (which I have not really had time to read) on marketing, aimed at book authors like myself. One of the suggestions made was that authors should "purchase a lifetime supply" of their books. That is, your book will not be for sale on Amazon.com forever, so you had better purchase all the copies you will ever need now.

I really wish I could spend more time promoting my current book. Between my day job, writing this book, and now looking for a job, I just don't have the time. And the fact that I'm too easily distracted doesn't help either.
