Book in Progress

For those following along, I write a book for Maker Media in 2014 - Getting Started with Adafruit Trinket. It has done fairly well over the years and I thank all who have bought a copy.

I was contacted 4 months ago about writing a new book on the Adafruit Circuit Playground Express. I said yes so I have been working on that since late November.

This is NOT the real cover, just a placeholder I mocked up.
I'll post more when I can, most of my free time will be writing the book.
