LPTHW Small Gathering This Weekend

This is a quick blog post to see if anyone is interested in getting together to work on Learn Python The Hard Way. I'd like to meet for maybe an hour or two with people who want help with the book and help them get through exercises. Totally free since this will help me make the book better.

I've started a simple site learncodethehardway.org for people to ask questions about learning to code, and I put this up as one of the questions:

LPTHW meetup this week in SF?

Go over there and comment on the question with your RSVP if you want to come, or reply with more information. I'll do it even if only one person shows up.

I've been able to get a printed copy of the book off lulu.com and I'm having it edited right now. I'm hoping by next week that I'll be offering the book off Lulu for dirt cheap so people can get printed copies. It'll probably be at just a small profit and sold in their store, so nothing fancy. Most likely it'll have some lame cover art and a simple layout, again nothing fancy.

I'll bring the book by with it's edits if people meet up so they can give me feedback on the format, layout, and size of the book.
