Alan, Slack And More

Ok, where do I start? With bullet points as I don't want this to turn into a rant. With bad news, since I want to end on a positive note.

Bad News

• Many have asked my opinion on the AA situation. It goes without saying that this has caused me stress and grief that I certainly could do without, especially at this unique juncture in my life. I will publish a post on the matter tomorrow; and perhaps I'll save some parts for this place. 

• I'm sorry to say that the aforementioned situation has led to a postponement of the hardcopy, indefinitely until I can find a solution for the specific at hand. Needless to say, Aragon's involvement in the book will have to be erased. Not for technical reasons - he was and is excellent in his work - but for moral reasons. I don't condone his actions and think he's a despicable individual; keeping the foreword suggests I otherwise. 

• I'm sorry for the delays too, and it's frustrating that I have to take blame for them - I blame myself and I think my followers blame me. I have a history delivering late on my promises, so it's understandable. This time however, it's not me - to some degree, yes, but had my editors done a proper job and my foreword writer conducted himself like his online persona in real life, I'd saved myself weeks.

Good News

• Now for the good news. Starting this weekend, a few of you will receive invites to the Leangains Slack. We will go from old to new Patrons, meaning the vets around here get first dibs and then we'll work ourselves down the ranks. I'm very excited for this and have great plans - plans that I've set the stage for while Teddy and Zach/Pat has been holding down the fort. 

• In the same vein, a few of you will be offered to become test pilots for an undisclosed project. You will be picked randomly. 

• The Kindle version will be updated soon and the changelog published. Thanks to everyone for their contributions.

• The formula is being modified for greater accuracy and an online version will become available soon. For now, there is an online version at MuscleHacking.com 

• New meal plans OR article (unpublished material from the book) coming this weekend. 

That's all folks. Have a great weekend. 

P.S. I promise to check in and take a few questions - like last time, they'll be curated into a Google Doc because Patreon is pissing me off right now.
