I got chills at seeing all those copies in the warehouse. Sigh. Thanks for sharing that, Steve. I'm going to pass this on. That was so awesome to watch!

I've been to a newspaper printing press, but not a book press. As I watched, I wondered how they kept the books secure until the release date, but saw that at the end. I've wondered how makes the decisions about matte vs gloss, foiling, etc. The bigger your name, the prettier your cover, perhaps? Fascinating post!

I cannot get over that it will take a full seven days to get all of the first printing done. Thank you for this great post. This is truly fascinating.

I've been enamored of assembly lines ever since I worked in an ice cream factory one summer during college. Watching that person pack Dan Brown's books into the cardboard box in that nifty way reminded me of packing fudgsicles (8 or 12 to a box). It isn't as easy as it looks. WinePress published my novel about abortion (too edgy for traditional houses) and they did a great job with the cover (spot gloss and all). You can see it on my website www.johnsonsforlife.com.
