I got a book deal on Dec. 10, and the publisher, Amherst Media, wanted a completed manuscript by Dec.31. I finished on Dec. 28, So you may be able to guess what I have been doing for the last couple of weeks. What I\u2019m going to do this week is attach a bunch of images from the book. They are connected to larger versions at my site, and these images also have the captions from the book. Frankly, it\u2019s going to take a couple of days to get backup to normal speed. Please consider my classes, the links are just below. I hope you\u2019ll take one! The book will be published in the fall. There isn\u2019t a title yet, but there are 31,000 words and a couple of hundred photographs!<\/p>\n<p>Thanks!<br \/>\nJohn Siskin<\/p>\n<p>My Classes<br \/>\n<a
