There are about 149 reasons I can thinking of off the top of my head that I want to get this book finished, but the biggest one, dearest reader, is so that I can finally talk about this shit.  Before this book was conceived, and after my previous experiences with such things, I had decided that I would do no publicity for whatever I wrote next.  No interviews, no signings, no readings, nothing.  But I’m going to have to totally reverse course on most of that due to the nature of this book.  I make a lot of assertions and posit a lot of conclusions that differ from many widely held beliefs in psychology.  So I’m going to have to defend a great deal of it to some people with rather a lot of letters after their names.  Which I’m fine with, but that means I have to be precise and exacting with the language and overall writing, much more so than anything I’ve done previously.  Hench the ludicrous amount of time it is taking.
