Today is a great day here on the farm. The sun has come out from behind the much more fall like clouds. I have a great batch of cheese in the works in the vat and I just got this image from my editor for the cover of my book.
I have to admit that as I have been writing this book for the past year on my lap top and delivering it back and forth to New York electronically, it has never really seemed like a book. It is a file on my computer. A very large file, but simply a digital file none the less. There is a part of me -- the nervous, anxious part -- that thought that the W.W. Norton company would take my manuscript and file it away in some dead storage in Queens and never actually publish it. Oddly, with this cover art, I think they might actual publish it.
Growing a Farmer; How I Came to Live Off the Land, is the story of this farm here, and how I came to be the guy who milks the cows in the mornings and make cheese in the afternoons. With a bit of luck it will come out in summer of next year. I think you will rather enjoy reading it.
AWESOME! You're a celebrity farmer!!
ReplyDeleteSo cool! I love it. Can't begin to say how eager I am to have it in my hands and read it.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! Since we moved to Hawaii and can't attend on Sunday's anymore, this will hopefully fill the void.
