Paul responded to me directly, he's on pto today. 
Looks like there's an issue with the ip address / network you're using the api key from. 
Starting the build while not being on VPN solved it. 

Still,  seems to be a good idea to have a lightweight prototyping area where I can just build some slim pages and go ahead with a PR. 

@jason: where do I put in my own api key? 

Thanks for the help so far, 
M

I doubt you'll have need to do this, but at times I've had to use my Google API key if I was working on things that required a clean book cache.
