I have never written a book before, so I did not really know what to expect. But I was convinced by a previous author, offering guidance and direction, to sign up as a co-author with them for my idea of a book on Net::LDAP. As they had previously published a book with AW we signed up with AW. Our contact at AW was very understanding of me being a new author, was very helpful and offered some good advice.

That was last year. Since then our AW contact has changed and our new contact does not seem to be quite so helpful. To add to that I rarely hear from my co-author, in fact the only thing I have heard in the last few months is "How are you doing, how much time have you had?"

So I will place this in the box of one of life lessons, but I do regret it as I now feel the book will never happen.

Well the day has finally come. Today the movers came and took most things, they will be back in the morning to get the rest.

My DSL at my new house is supposed to be active from Friday, but who knows. And if it does not go smoothly it is bound to be a challenge to get things sorted at this time of year.

Some examples can be found here

Finally we have found a buyer for our house and the chain of buyers is complete. Not only is it complete, it is quite short too with only 4 parties.

So now to see if we can get things completed and moved by Christmas.

There is still lots todo, including a European mirror, so keep watching
