RYOMS back from copyedit, preorder time running out

Yesterday, the copyedits on Run Your Own Mail Server returned. This means that today I’ll be setting up a Discord and integrating into my Patronizer systems to replace the Video Hangout level, writing the next column for the FreeBSD Journal and, coincidentally, the last column for Dear Abyss. I asked Simon Travaglia if he’d be interested in doing a foreword but he sensibly declined, so I guess I better write something to introduce that travesty. (I’m open on suggestions for people to approach, mind you.)

Anyway.

Once I complete the copyedits, I start on the page layout.

Once I complete page layout, I order print proofs and make the ebook.

The print proof is my absolute last chance to fix errors. At that point, I turn off preorders and order sponsor, Patronizer, Kickstarter, and preorder copies.

I have no date for this. Depends on if the copyeditor can cause me as much pain as I caused her.

But it’s approaching. Preorder now if you want a signed book.

And before anyone else asks about a signed ebook: that was a Kickstarter-only item, sorry.
