Book progress
As of today, May 16, 2006, I have finished the 52,000-word manuscript for Steam in Northern Ontario. Photo selections have been made. Producing track maps began yesterday; this will take three weeks. Then it's book layout & design, followed by writing about 8,000 words of captions. We're still on track to turn the book over to the printer in July for a Labour Day release.

Labour Day, Ian you're killing me! The January letter said the book would be delayed until mid-summer and I was so looking forward to reading it on holidays. What a shame.
Hey Todd, I'm killing myself! I'll be working through the summer on this one instead of enjoying the sunshine.
Cheers,
Ian
A very good point, Ian! DO try to get out at least once in awhile with the family...I can make do with a re-read of one of your old books. Hey, on that subject, any ideas around a reprint of the original "Steam at Allandale"? It's the only one I haven't read and I'd love to get my hands on a copy.
Take care,
Todd
