Follow-up to this post.

I've heard back recently from the publishing board at the MAA. The comments were somewhat brief, and basically amounted to "we like this project and would like to see it completed, but it will need some serious editing". There were a few particular suggestions for things to change, but none of them look too severe.

What this suggests (although the following is strictly my speculation) is that if I keep following through with rounds of edits, then with 80% probability the book will eventually get published. Unfortunately, what is not clear to me is exactly how long this process is going to take -- especially since I am doing my undergrad now, meaning I have actual homework to do (unlike in high school).

I'm still trying to formulate exactly how I want to proceed -- I think that I'll begin by making obvious changes (fixing typos that were pointed out, moving certain things around, expanding the hints), and then seeing if I can get a few professional editors to go through with a fine-tooth comb.

Sheesh, I totally should have seen this coming, anyways. Wish I had done more editing over the summer now.
