Walk to work and my Current Projects
Friday, January 02, 2009I have been very blessed to be able to live close to where I work. It's just around a mile as the crow flies. And we know that crows don't fly straight. But with all the snow this year (over 5' in December, breaking all December records) I've enjoyed walking in instead of taking the truck or car. It's so different than driving or even riding a bike, in that it's very low tech. That is welcome after years of such a busy high tech living! It makes me think of how dependent we are on vehicles, and with lots of snow, things just come to a crawl. Just a nice way to unwind at the end of the day.
Times are busy around here. Some things listed below are left over from before, but none-the-less still a viable project. I would like to keep an update a little more current, but it does take time, and it's mostly all office work. (See my previous post: Not enough time -- and a record snow fall!)
Book printing - 7 books on the ready to print. Each requires a contract w/ the printer, having all the files complete and ready, money in place, quantity established, etc.
- The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus, Edition 4 (on the press)
- The Lamb - Portuguese
- The Lamb - English
- The Lamb - Luxembourgish
- All That the Prophets have Spoken -- Arabic
- The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus -- Interactive Edition
- The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus -- Portuguese
4 Videos to finish / finalize / produce (each around 45 minutes):
- Worldview Dynamics
- The Power of a Biblical Narrative
- The Power of Visual Aids
- The Power of Prophetic History
Other things to do:
- Finalize The Lamb - both Chinese Simplified and Chinese Traditional
- Format books for Amazon's Kindle
- Hook up a UPS in the office
- Audiobooks - record / edit
- Product photography for the web
- Web maintenance, including helping get a new shopping cart up and running
- Oversee warehouse
So, that's a quick look at where I am at right now in the scheme of things. It is a little overwhelming at times, but need to be faithful with the time I've been given. And it does get tough at times to keep focus.
Thanks to all of you who donate to allow me to be here, working full time, on these needed projects. Without your support, I would have to have a part-time job, which would make completing these tasks that much harder (and slower.)
