We have good news from Lewis Lodge to share with you today!
In the grand scheme of things, it won’t even register a blip on the global seismograph; but for us, and particularly for Simon, my husband, who is the recipient of the good news; it’s the result of an awful lot of hard work, year in, year out, for over a decade.

Maybe this is why I never made it in academia. Because I always wanted to be a writer, and I was scribbling away at my fiction instead of grinding out endless paper after paper after paper...
But... How can you be 'too nice' to be a Reader? Does that mean that all Readers must be vicious and evil and plagerise their students' work?
Mind you, my superviser wasn't very nice. And he's now a Reader. [ Or is he now a Professor?] Met him at a conference a couple of years back, said 'hi!' after not bumping into him for 8 years or so, and he didn't even bother to come up and say 'hello, how are you doing?' An amazing academic, but a lousy human being...
Sometimes I think I got my Ph.D in spite of him, instead of because of him.

Producing solid pieces of research takes an awful lot of work, so he richly deserves the accolade.
