What a Difference a Week Makes May 31, 2006
It’s been a little over a week since I wrote that cloying “ode to a dictionary” entry in my blog, and I’m definitely rethinking that whole word romance shite. We’ve got a deadline that passed a few days ago, a load of stuff I still have to edit, a pile of proofreading I’ll probably never get to finish before the issue ships… in other words, it’s slash and burn time. We’re movin’ units, banging the stuff out, slinging the hash, in total System D mode, to borrow a professional cook’s term. This puppy’s leaving, and at this point I frankly don’t care how.
Don’t be alarmed, though; they all end this way. Welcome to the world of publishing and deadlines. On the plus side, once we ship an issue, we’re all made whole, shiny and new again. Or at least we lose that immediate urge to strangle each other.
