Well, I didn't win PowerBall, so I better keep writing. :-) Two BRAND NEW releases to share for my IT Pro Solutions series.
I really like the covers on the IT Pro Solutions books. Beautiful, IMHO (and I hope you agree). It's the first time I've had full creative control. The interiors are just as gorgeous too. Your support needed to spread the good word so please let others know and share if you can.
You'll note something new on the cover too: Recognition of my son's contributions. Will has been my go to technician and check reader for years, setting up my development environments with each and every product build and performing preliminary technical review. He's the guy triple-checking every reference, step-by-step and procedure from GUI to shell, after my own double-check. As I stated in my Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 book published by Microsoft, he's instrumental to my writing process and now he has an expanded role in the full process from start to finish.
