There was a mix-up of communications with my editor. I told her that I was out this week. But it appears that just won’t cut it. Packt Pub is FAST! Thankfully, I invested time during last night’s flight to work on Chapter 2 – Quick Start with Java. This morning, after fixing up Spring-a-Gram, I was able to polish up and submit the rewrite for Chapter 1 – Quick Start with Groovy.

Word is that they’ll actually have this book out sometime in October. Wow! Everyone I talk to is stunned at the speed this book is being cranked out. I have become very glad that my other TWO talks I submitted for SpringOne did NOT get approved! When would I have time considering I still have to prep slides.

As a side note, I also SUPER glad to have used asciidoctor. It made edits super, super, SUPER simple to deploy. Stay tuned!
