The FEDEX guy delivered my advanced copy of The Complete Photo Guide to Jewelry Making late yesterday afternoon. This means I am one step closer to the end of the book process and will soon, maybe in about a month, see the book in bookstores. It also means those who have ordered copies through Amazon will finally get their copies as well very, very soon! Yeah!
At this stage, I now have to review the copy for any minor (hopefully) errors. Then I make a list of them and send them back to the publisher to correct before any reprint orders are filled. I did a general flip through last night, and I think it looks great. I’m very happy with the huge number of photos, and the gallery section, which turned out to be problematic at one point, looks awesome, thanks to many jewelry making designers who stepped up and helped me out with it.
It won’t be long now before I will announce the official release!

Congratulations, Tammy. I’m glad the gallery section turned out well, and I’m thrilled that you’ve chosen some of my jewelry for it. I recall all the work you put into that part of the book, and I’m glad to have been just one of the many designers who helped out.
I can’t wait to get a copy of the book.
