It is odd Mark Send a noteboard - 03/03/2011 02:53:22 PM
1. Does July 12 apply both to the UK and US? I presume so since he included the names of both publishers in his post.

2. If he's truly so close to finishing, why not just wait another couple weeks and make both the date and "I'm Done" announcements at the same time?


The only thing I can think of is that the publisher was going to announce the date one way or the other and he wanted to do it first.

As of yet, there is nothing on his Not a Blog.
