    Mine is scheduled for the 1st? Booo icon_sad.gif

    For those that have it, what are your initial impressions?

    I like what I've looked over (first couple chapters and a little near the back). I need to complete 2 other books (or really 6, but once these other two are done I can add this one easily into my reading).

    I'd say it's laid out well and the images and descriptions are very clear (as I'd expect).

    My only disappointment is that it is a paperback and not in hardcover, but I'll get over that in time :)

    The pencil is nice too! ;)

    Maybe by Monday I can really 'begin' reading it.

    Has everyone/anyone gotten their books yet?

    I thought I went through the option that led to a Yahoo Store and ordered one -- and I see some of my info appear when I do a partial entry in the fields, so I know I've been on the page before..... I just haven't received (or been billed) for the copy I thought I pre-ordered icon_scratch.gif

    Did I miss an additional submit/confirm button on the order form? Or did pre-orders exceed the initial printing and are others still waiting for their copy?

    Yes, mine arrived on the 19th of March.

    I don't recall how the order process went, though...I Just entered my info, and received my confirmation e-mail a few moments afterward.

    I think I checked for an email around the 19th when I saw your previous post -- not the 10th when I thought I ordered it. icon_lol.gif

    I'm off to check my two most likely email addresses for an order confirmation around the 10th.... If I don't find a confirmation email then I'll probably just order (another?) one -- worst case I'll have an autographed 1st edition to give someone as a birthday present.

    Or look for the charges around the 15th (I think that's when it shipped). So if you were not billed...safe to bet you won't see two copies...However, it would make an excellant gift to a Tech-Type person...maybe an anniversary present icon_cheers.gif (or not for most spouses won't find that a 'great' gift icon_sad.gif ).

    Heck, donate it to your library and use it as a 'gift-in-kind' donation! (just hope they don't sell it to buy more sewing books icon_sad.gif (maybe that's just my library icon_scratch.gif )

    Sigh, I went ahead and paid full retail...... but at least (hopefully) I remembered to select yes for the signed copy.

    And I got the confirmation email.

    I did have a funky Internet Connection back on the 10th of March -- I remember the failed attempt to take advantage of the Keurig extra-bold coffee sale for the daylight saving time change. I don't think I placed my "first" order during that hour that didn't exist ("spring ahead") -- but I'll will be strange if a 2nd copy shows up after we get that hour back in the change to standard time in the fall :D

    Good luck on this one arriving soon then!

    I was thinking Indiana still supported Non-DST (and you never would have lost your hour), but it appears they too have now fallen victim to DST...poor b@st@rds icon_sad.gif Arizona and Hawaii are the last two remaing states with some sense regarding time changes ;)

    I started the videos and re-read Chapter 1.

    She's done a nice job.
