Shlama all--here is the latest email exchange between myself and my publisher Baruch. It shouldn't be much longer now...
When Mari got delayed, I decided to take one more run through of the English. I told Baruch I would only need a few days and that he could use the time working on laying out the other sections. In spite of my being specific, he didn't think I would finish that fast and was shocked when I did so on schedule. I wrote him back and asked why he didn't believe me, and so he wrote this back, please look at the bold:
Shlama Akhi Andrew,
Why, why, why...indeed... <!-- s
--><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/wink1.gif" alt="" title="Wink" /><!-- s -->
I will try to reserve no further doubts regarding your lightening fast accomplishments... and such things as set by your own internal clock... right hand in air palm facing forwards. <!-- s
--><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="" title="Smile" /><!-- s -->
I hope to have read through all Shali's proofs by tomorrow night.
So akhi if you are ready for print then come Thursday I'll be putting down the final layout for print and there can be no turning back at this point, otherwise our pagination and what not could be a HUGE redo.
But from what I'm seeing with this last edit you did I really think you put the final touches on it this time.
Mari looking extremely good and I'm exceedlingly blessed to be part of this so now I trust that we are on the runway and cleared to go...
Blessings,
Baruch
So all the remained was my giving permission, so I wrote back:
Shlama Akhi Baruch,
Then YHWH replied: "Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay. "See, he is puffed up; his desires are not upright-- but the righteous will live by his faith."
Habakkuk 2:2-4
I walk by faith and not by sight. And while you may not like my using this line considering who said it to whom, I have to anyway: What you are going to do, do quickly.
My only caveat: Remember I have not seen the other stuff in final Word doc form, so if something is missing in the final pdf that needs to be there, you will have to start again. If you are sure you have everything I require though, then by all means move forward now!
Shlama w'burkate (Aramaic for "peace and blessings")
