Final Review, Acknowledgements and Secrets

7 October 2006 No Comment

So the book is done-done. That’s completely written, reviewed, submitted and signed off. The acknowledgements are written and now all that remains is to wait for it to arrive.

Writing a book is an interesting experience. As George Orwell put it, "like a long drawn out illness". To keep myself engaged, I added a few obscure references in various places. Here’s a few things which are hidden away:

  • A reference to Hail to the Thief
  • A picture of Ireland
  • A virtual Jeff Barr.
  • Dumb and Dumber
  • A Creative Zen mention.
  • A pint of Guinness
  • My two children
  • A Rooster
  • The movie
  • Casino
  • Lots of Zeppelin references

There’s also a mention of crystal oscillators and Winston Churchill.
