~90K words. A few years of work. A transformative journey that did not end at all as I thought when I started. I'm grateful to have done it - what a privilege. A much bigger conceptual project than anything I've done up to this point.
I got to think intensely for a better part of a few years (in parallel to running a lab and teaching as a professor). Somehow there was not time for that before. I'm not exactly sure where I found it; I just did.
There will be many revisions going forward. And it won't hit the shelves anytime soon. But I'm going to pause and celebrate this moment, where every one of the bits are finally in place. I learned so much along the way. Even today, on the last day, I was fascinated, and I'm grateful. (That said, I'm also a bit tired).
@NicoleCRust woohoo, congrats!! 🥳 The discussions you've started on #neuromatchstodon have been very thought-provoking. Look forward to reading the book.
Curious to know: are you self-publishing this? And will there be an audiobook? sorry for too many questions 🙈
@manisha
Thank you! I'm certainly grateful to this community for the conversations as I've mulled these things over.
More details about the publication to come! Don't want to jinx things before it's all finalized (but I am under contract with a publisher). And I'll definitely be pushing to see an audiobook happen.
@neuralreckoning
Thanks! At some point along the way, I started to conceptualize it as ~30 3K word essays that all link together. 3K is a fun length! And so it's a bit like one foot in front of the other.
