Not enough to support the family on that income alone, but I do make some money.<br /><br />I've got to think that just about any kids programming book requires this level of effort. If the goal is to encourage rather than discourage, the author, editor and everyone else responsible has to work their collective tail off to eliminate as much dead-end narrative as possible. It's not an undertaking for the faint of heart, but I have no doubt that the folks behind books like Super Scratch (from No Starch) worked just as hard, if not harder.<br /><br />Thanks for the kind words!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00135361916531185929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-581197352358126527.post-58159422687053086122013-05-20T01:11:19.965-07:002013-05-20T01:11:19.965-07:00Hi Chris, neat Dart post.

Think it's very possible to say that this much effort, testing, and total manhours have never been put into a children's book before in well... ever.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
