Wait But Why - BOOK

Hey readers,

Remember the time I kind of disappeared for two years? And then I triumphantly returned in 2019 with a giant post series called The Story of Us? And then I was part of the way through publishing the series when I disappeared again for three more years?

That sucked.

I’ll be publishing a post on Wait But Why soon with the whole story, but the big news is:
  1. There is a book
  2. That book is done
  3. Like actually done
  4. For real
  5. It’s coming out on Tuesday Feb 21
This has been quite a ride, and I’m incredibly, impossibly happy that it’s over. I’m excited about this book and I can’t wait to share it with you. On launch day, it’ll be available on all the normal platforms for e-book and audiobook, as well as on Wait But Why (for the same price as the Kindle version). Right now, only the Kindle version can be pre-ordered. There may be a print version down the road, but not now—with ~300 big color images, it’s a book that works way better digitally (a print version would have also delayed the launch by many, many more months—hard pass on that).

Also: While I was in my many-year hole of book-writing darkness, the one place where I surfaced from time to time was on Twitter, where I put all the little thoughts that would normally have been blog posts.

I put my favorite tweets of 2022 into two threads:

1)  Thoughts on life, etc.

2)  Tweets that might blow your mind


I’ll also be posting a bunch of book updates on Twitter over the next couple weeks.

Happy we can be friends again,

Tim
