Focus and Leverage Part 341

I have received several emails in the last week wanting to know when the sequel to Epiphanized is going to be released.  I want everyone to know that Bruce Nelson and I are working on it feverishly and so far we have roughly 14 chapters completed.  The e-mailers also wanted to know if the same cast of characters will be in the sequel and the answer is yes, Joe, Sam, Becky and Connor will be back, but there will also we some new characters added.  You'll see some new settings being worked, including healthcare and maintenance, repair and overhaul to name a couple.  We'll also introduce new tools and some of the old ones as well....maybe with a new look.  I want to thank everyone who wrote and asked about the sequel.

Bruce and I will be using a different publisher this time around as we have had lots of problems with basic communications.  We thought we were going to be able to get the rights back to Epiphanized, but we can't seem to get North River Press to answer our emails.  Bruce and my plan was to give the book away if we were able to get the rights back, but we doubt that will happen.  Unfortunately, very soon, Epiphanized will no longer be available for sale because NRP is not interested in selling it any longer.  If this scenario changes, I'll be sure to let everyone know, but I'm not hopeful of a resolution.

Hi Steve.....they wouldn't understand, even though they published all of Goldratt's books. But your description is absolutely correct. Bob
