   I know Jake recently got an excellent book on LEGO trains published. I’d love to see something similar, but all about building minifig-scale LEGO towns.

You know, it was surprisingly easy to do my book. TONS of work, certainly. But very fun work, and it’s been great to have accomplished it. Interestingly, it wasn’t “hard” work, in sense that only a select few people in the world could do it. It was “dedicated” work, meaning that you have to really stay focused on chugging through. But it was one of the most fun side projects I’ve done so far.

I’d say if you want to see something like this, jump in! I’ll even introduce you to my publisher if you’d like. (Same folks that Published Virtual LEGO, as well as the upcoming book from Allan)

No!!! Don’t say that. I really, really don’t have time for any more projects, so telling me how much fun it was isn’t helping me at all. Please tell me that it was gruelling, thankless, back-breaking labor that made you regret you’d ever gotten the idea, so that I can sleep more comfortably at night. :)

Thanks,
