PragProWriMo - Write a Technical Book this November

  • Hmm. I just started playing with a comic about "Miss Fussyspider", who likes to organize and sort things; a friend suggested that it could be a tutorial on different sort algos... and then I see this. HMMM.

    Wonder if they'd want a comic-book introduction to sorts. I always see the PragProg line as being a bit more hardcore than that but you NEVER KNOW.

  • I did it two years ago. When I was done, I shopped it around. No one was interested.

    Even still, it was totally worth it.

  • Interesting. I'm tempted to take a stab at turning my Integrating Grails With The Real World talk into a book for PragProWriMo. Not sure if I can justify taking time away from working on my startup project though. sigh Too much to do, never enough time...

  • Contemplating an iOS / sound book for this. Anyone else participating this year?

  • I'll be participating in the forums, encouraging folks, and giving writing tips throughout the month. Would love to see some of you awesome HN folks join in the fun.

  • Think I'll give this a go. Already had some stuff in mind about basic PHP security for beginners, so I may as well see how it goes on paper.

  • Someone forgot to set up their twitter account. @pragprowrimo doesn't exist yet.
