Checking in on myself
Got revised and trimmed draft of chapter for edited volume off to editors, who sound appreciative (even if I failed to quite grasp all the minutiae of the somewhat arcane bibliographic conventions in play, sigh).
Purportedly have a couple of web articles forthcoming shortly.
Feeling as if I don't have much on hand at present: there's the book for review, which turned out not to be doing the thing I hoped it would, so I think I have to re-read it on its own terms to do a fair review.
An acquaintance has asked me for input/feedback on a couple of things: I am not entirely convinced that I am precisely the most qualified person to do so, but perhaps I am the nearest thing to that among the people that they know?
I have taken out and looked at my notes for the 'no deadline, no rush' bibliography thing that's somewhere on my to-do list.
I also wonder about seeing whether I can concoct something in the way of an article on the basis of the research trips I actually made to Institution in The Middle of Nowhere, where I was hoping to make a final clearing-up of some final queries visit two years ago, hah - since I'm pretty sure I've got most of the important stuff. Have been doing a British Newspaper Archive search for background and context, and now have another rabbit-hole beckoning...
Still have several prospective academic blogposts that I might write.
