It's the day after Christmas, and I woke up to an email from Continuum, the publisher for my free will book. Part of the email was the following time-table:
The scheduled date for sending the print files of Free Will to press is
29 May 2008, and I have built the following schedule to meet this date.
At this stage, I would ask you to let me know if you have any plans to be away for more than a few days between now and this press date. We have some flexibility to amend the early parts of the schedule to accommodate your travel plans.

What a way to get back in the groove after a holiday. And looking ahead, compiling an index with a one month old sounds like fun, huh?
