Squadratomagico’s done that and more. Enjoy your time at Burning Man.

I wrote draft dissertation chapters at one-a-month once, but for the second book it was down to one a semester while on leave, which I thought was terrible until a colleague in a related discipline told me that’s what she had shot for under the same circumstances. Don’t rest too easy once you send it off though. I just learned that a manuscript of mine has sat at the press for the better part of a year, unsent to readers and effectively unread there. Should have inquired or prodded, obviously, but as the old song says, naievete never sleeps.

Congratulations, Squadrato, on getting it done!

Thanks for the congratulations. And, @ Ladysquires, I think fixing footnotes and formatting is not unlike destroying one’s knees… As I said, much hard work remains, but it’s enjoyable to be able to see the broad view, and to feel that one is within reach of the end.

That said, I have also climbed a few literal mountains, including one this summer, and I find that the walk down absolutely destroys my knees. Let’s hope that side of the analogy isn’t fulfilled.

Congrats Squadro!
