One day, when you are big and famous, I can say, "Hey. I slept on his couch once!"    :trollface:


Well done sir.

I'm curious as to when you submitted compared to when it was published. How much time did it take you to do? Revisions back from Joe? What/who inspired you to make the effort?

Nuts and bolts stuff.

The modeling and writing took about 6 weeks - mostly nights and weekends.  I pitched the article first, and then sent some early photos to get feedback before I sent the full article.  That helped a lot, as it allowed me to calibrate my pictures early and catch the actual build.  Once it went it, it was about 4 months to a tentative acceptance, and then about another 9 months to get it to actual publication.  Joe tells me he now has about an 18 month lead time for most articles due to volume of response, but I think that's flexible based on the subject.

As to inspiration, if Lee and Dave Vollmer can get published . . .
