Getting Going…..
So…as I suggested some weeks ago, we have been working hard to get the website www.ConstruçãoSustentável.pt up and running…we did actually have it on line for the original book launch on the 8th November last year. However, I had to decide on a different strategy for now…and now, at the beginning of the year, the first videocasts and podcasts are online…as you can see below…
The way I have posted the podcasts is not the final. However, as we only have three podcasts, there is no point opting for any other option.
And I know from the first three podcasts (and I mainly mean video recordings) I know that there is loads of room for improvement. This will come gradually.
The next filming session will be on the 23rd January which will be published in February….so see you soon…

Pre-Launch Construção Sustentável
Writing a book is no mean feat. In the first place is a mega amount of work and you just have to believe me on that. But it makes a big difference working with good people. I will tell this story another time.
My partner Livia Tirone has just finished the teaser (a pre-launch version) and all attention is now focused on the pre-launch sales campaign. Tomorrow (Thursday) (having just looked at the clock, I mean later today) I, together with with Francis Doody, who has his own Internet project JoomlaLisbon can start working on getting this teaser set up on various websites, so that the pre-sales process can really begin.
We are working with Sónia Pinto (who is the graphic designer of the book) and she has been a real find. Not often you get someone who is very talented and who works to a programme (at least not here in Portugal). Deadlines to her is all important and her work is really top quality.
As is the work of Fernando & Sergio Guerra on the photographs for the book. Fernando is the best in Portugal and he is a real pleasure to work with. The quality of their work is really exceptional. Take a look at their site.
It’s now all down to making sure we get sales right. You will be able to buy pre-launched copies of the book soon. I will post the link as soon as it’s complete.
