I’ve been alluding to some news in the last several posts, and did not want to post anything here until all arrangements were finalized. After a couple of months of back and forth with various lawyers and editors, I have a book deal with John Wiley & Sons, one of the world’s leading business book publishers.
I wish I could say I was writing the great American novel, or some profound treatise on world events, but I am penning Breakthrough IT: Supercharging Organizational Growth through Technology, a book related to the work my company does in helping corporations use their IT departments to generate monetary returns, rather than just being another large cost line on the P&L.
During all the negotiations I’ve been merrily writing away, and have completed approximately 18,000 words out of the 50,000 I am signed up to write. The book is scheduled for a Fall or Winter 2007 release, so hopefully next year I’ll be announcing that it has hit bookshelves!
