So, I wrote a book to help. It's not so much a Rails tutorial as it is a guide to programming, project management, and motivation, using Rails as a medium.
I'm happy to answer any questions you have!
So I have to ask: is the promotion TRULY time limited?
I know where you're coming from, though -- I've seen a bunch of scammy countdowns too, and those "only 17 copies left (of this book I can make infinite copies of)!" on other sites :-)
