Very nice indeed.

Apocalypse Ink Productions has bought the Jay Lake non-fiction book Jay Lake’s Process of Writing. Based on more than a decade of Lake’s blog posts pertaining to writing process, Lake’s down-to-earth and in-the-trenches thoughts on what it takes to be a working author will inform and inspire all levels of writers.

“I've been thinking and talking about writing for a long time. Finally, I've been given the opportunity to organize those thoughts in a way that is hopefully helpful to both emerging writers and established authors. In this book you'll find some wit, some wisdom and a lot of my own learning curve, along with some new material to bridge it all together and make sense of years of public rambling.”

Jay Lake’s Process of Writing has been scheduled for release in May of 2013.
