So, unrelated to anything
- I've signed up for NaNoWriMo.
- I was invited to be on a roundtable on Tolkien and adaptation and authenticity at PCA 2014; that's in addition the roundtable I organized on the Monstrous Feminine and my paper on Pacific Rim fandom.
- I ordered a finishing press, book press, cutting mat, and English backing hammer so I can also start some serious binding work. My goal is to get good enough that I can give people books as presents that are respectable.
- I'm doing well with my prelims reading plus my seminar reading, largely keeping on task, and also I have several ideas for papers.
In short I'm kind of getting back on track in life.
