62 words!!!! Really!????!!!
I often take my tuts and copy and paste the pics into a file and re-write the copy for soemthing smaller / quicker to glance at while at the torch.

When I wrote my books, I actually took the pictures in a way that I felt needed no text at all. I wanted my pictures to tell the story. Before adding any text, I had a friend follow the pictures to make some of the things in my book, and when he ran into problems I took new photos to better explain what is going on.
True, there is text with each of my pictures, but I like to think that someone can take my books to the torch with them and follow along with the projects without having to read anything.
