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.

What Makes Me Happy

Whenever I enter a bookstore these days, I regularly check to see if my first JavaScript book is in stock.

For about a month, I have been largely disappointed. Most Chapters bookstores in my area were sold out of the book. I wasn't sure if this was good or bad. The book is obviously selling, which is good. But if it's not in bookstores, sales will slump quickly. Could it be that Chapters won't order any more?

Well, I went to two bookstores over the past two days, and both of them had MULTIPLE copies. (By multiple, I mean two of course.) One of the two stores was out of the book a few weeks ago. Yipee! Evidence they are reordering! I wonder how overall book sales are doing? I can't wait for the next statement.

Is it possible I've sold 10,000 copies? That would be amazing!

Scott
