And even cooler than when I got to touch my book, Scott and I both got our author copies today.
I’ve certainly been enjoying showing it to everyone I know.

got to touch my book!
I got to hold a printed copy of our OCA Java 8 Programmer I Study Guide book today!
I haven’t gotten my copies from the publisher yet. However, I did get to borrow a copy from Elena who bought it on Amazon. Borrowing your own book feels weird. It was awesome to get to show it to people today though! Yay!
I also learned that the stray character in the assessment exam is not a problem in the print edition.
OCA 8 book now printed
We got our first reported of someone receiving a printed copy of our OCA 8 Study Guide today. She pre-ordered it on Amazon.com some time back. She lives in the United States (in NY). I expect it will take the book longer to get delivered outside the US.
Amazon also lists it as being in stock instead of out of stock. (It was listed as pre-order before the e-book came out. After that, it was listed as out of stock. Even though it was out of stock because it hadn’t printed yet.)
I also found it interesting that used book sellers list themselves on books they don’t have. Two of them started listing way before the book printed which meant it was impossible for them to have it. And a good number of them list for a price point higher than Amazon. Weird.
