He got thoroughly whacked by Matt's Hammer for that.

Seeing you after long time! Were you busy with tight deadline for your typescript book?
|
|
|
|
|
I have been. It's good to be back.

Thanks. It was a lot of hard work.

I can just imagine. When Packt reached me last to last year, they shared the details and how they would track it chapter wise almost alternate week to make sure things are on track. I was not able to commit because of sparsity of time.
Typescript is new and popular. And now, you are Guru of it. 
Hope your book does well. 
And I know where to look or whom to talk if I work on and get stuck with TypeScript.

It was fun doing it, but the constant updates does take a toll. The thing that gets in the way of the process is the fight you have at first to get the book you want past their pre-approval process. There are a seemingly endless round of "could you write about this" and that gets in the way of what you want to write. It's still not the book I wanted to write - I originally envisaged the book evolving one project building steadily through, showing how to use the power of TypeScript to break complex problems down into simpler ones.

Yeah - that scares me - like taking away my freedom of when I what to do it. I know this is to keep things focused, still.

And then - how I want to do it! 
But then, given I have not written any book yet, I might be okay here considering their pre-approval process as expert advice for best.
