It Shipped!

Today was something of a red-letter day; Mike Bailey and I sent most of our book on computer graphics shaders off to our publisher, AK Peters. We've been working on it for close to a year, and at this point we have something like 340 pages in Word format, with three chapters left to go. Now we have some time to work on the remaining material while we're getting reviews, but we'll have to work pretty furiously in another month or so if we're going to get it in print (or near print...) by the SIGGRAPH conference in August. Sooner or later I'll probably put some of the examples up in this blog; they're really fun to see.

This sure beats the seven years it took me to get my introductory graphics text written; it helps a lot to work with someone like Mike who really knows the field.
