Now, to begin work on a Master’s degree. Perhaps I’ll finish before I retire.
The last half was written in an antihistamine haze. I’m hoping that it’ll read like Kubla Khan.
My stack of photocopies and research, at least 500 pages, was unceremoniously dumped into the recycling bin last Thursday. The pile of library books gets turned in this week. I’m amazed that all that reading produced such a tiny paper.
I’m currently translating a French version of Calvino’s Invisible Cities to help me relearn French. I probably should have chosen a book that was originally written in French, but what the hell.
