• Sept. 1992 Authored Teach Yourself C In 21 Days (Sams Publishing)

This is an international bestselling book that is available in a number of languages including Korean, Spanish, Romainian, English, and more. This is the book that started the Sams Teach Yourself in 21 Days craze. I created this book which was the first book to add a step-by-step tutorial to the promise of learning in a set period of time. While the publisher argued for a number of different time frames--including "in a month," I targeted three weeks. Twenty-one days seemed like enough time to effectively learn a topic, yet not so much time it would become frustrating.
