I still remember the first time I created a book.
I say “created”, because I was not the publisher. That honor went to my employer at the time. I was not the author. That honor went to one of my colleagues. No, I had the honor of managing the project. I set (and reset) the deadlines. I edited and proofed and rewrote. I contacted vendors, gathered quotes, coordinated efforts, solicited feedback, weighed options and made decisions.
