In the true tradition of photo documenting the unboxing of fabulous products that arrive in boxes, I took lots of pictures during the unboxing event of the very first Wicket in Action delivery.
I tried to build up the tension with photographing the outside of the box, ensuring good depth of field, and then opening up the box, showing barely a glimpse of the contents. And I finished with a couple of alternative uses for when you are done reading.
If you have ordered your copy and not yet received it, be patient—getting the prints of a book first is a writer’s prerogative.
Very cool. My sincere congratulations to you and Eelco!
I nearly felt as if I was unboxing my own book while clicking through the pics. Now that’s what I call proper documentation
Give a cat a book that you have devoted months of your life to? Meh.
Give a cat an empty cardboard box? Feline friend for life.
Congratulations to both of you guys!
After waiting for a few weeks, it finally happened!!! “Wicket in Action” reached my home!!!
Thanks!.. My time to work now!
Congratulations Martijn! I was suffering through the writing right alongside you (Seam in Action), so I can appreciate the feeling you had when you received that box. I could hardly believe my eyes when I received mine.
Only one problem. Where is Seam in Action in that stack of Manning books? I’ll get yours if you get mine
Congratulations…loving the unboxing photos!
Martijn, just wanted to take the time to stop by and thank you for Wicket in Action. It’s an excellent read so far.
Looking forward to any future Wicket books you and Eelco write together.
