This past November I participated in the PragProWriMo. For those familiar with the NaNoWriMo, the concept is similar. Commit to writing on a technical book every single day for the entire month of November. I had been kicking around the idea of writing a book on Node.js and decided to use this as an opportunity to see what I had to say on the topic. Turns out that I had about a hundred and fifty pages worth of material.

My latest book on Git, Pragmatic Guide to Git goes on sale today! I’m really excited about this new book. It’s the culmination of a year’s worth of work on an entirely new format for Pragmatic Bookshelf. From today’s announcement: Last summer, Pragmatic author Travis Swicegood proposed a new kind of book covering the popular version control system, Git. We thought it was a good idea–so much so that we’ve launched a whole new series in this format.
