      1/ In the Current Year, it's quite short. When it's totally-swear-to-God-for-real 100% done (notes on that in a moment), I have a PDF. I then upload that to http://lulu.com  and 10 minutes later they're good to go. I can then click "buy" and I'm in the print queue. https://twitter.com/mattbramanti/status/1363923945544638468 …

      2/ I think http://lulu.com  ships 3-5 days later? Then another 3-10 days in the mail? (Also, note, I do not "click" "buy". I have a script I wrote which parses CSV data for backers, and that script controls a web browser which navigates to http://lulu.com  >>>

      4/ so, anyway, on the day that the book is 120% done, I will upload to http://lulu.com  and place orders. Packages should arrive on front porches ~1-2 weeks later.

      5/ so, now, let's talk about "120% done". * I will finish this revision on 28 Feb. * I tried to parallelize proof reading, but that worked poorly. So I will submit to proofreader on 1 March. * That will come back in 2-3 weeks. * In parallel I will start selecting photos

      * By mmm...21 March? I will have a full proofread document with photos embedded. * Folks suggested that I do layout w LaTeX. I am tentatively agreeing with them. If I do I will use a 3rd party service with maybe 3 weeks turnaround time (?). So that means layout done by 14 Apr

      so, bottom line, best guess, right now, books head to printer on 14 Apr, and land on front porches before the end of April. [ leather bound editions, signed editions, vacuum sealed editions, etc. need to be shipped to my house, have extra work done, be remailed, etc. ]

      oh crap just realized that the "Lucifer's Hammer" edition inside the vac sealed bags ... is gonna be a bit trickier now that I'm contemplating 8.5 x 11 print size. My [ current ] vac sealer can't do bags that big. :grimace: ahhhh....gotta think about this

          ok, so it turns out that I've got some vac seal bags that I bought once which are the wrong size (1" too wide for the heat sealer bar in my machine). Turns out: if I vac seal once, the last 1" doesn't get sealed. Then shift sideways, vac seal a 2nd time... [ 8.5 x 11 draft 4 ]pic.twitter.com/3LfY9RIopT
