I received the first copies of GDC just today. My first published book. I’m holding one in my hands; it’s tangible, a thing of real, undeniable substance. I would describe what this feels like if I could. Those of you who have published books, no matter how many, must remember that first moment when your work became real in a way never before true. Those who haven’t yet experienced this, you won’t know until you arrive here—which I recommend most heartily. There’s nothing else I can say. If you want to know what this feels like then make it happen. Trust me, it’s worth it.
