I AM SO TIRED. Remember when I thought I was gonna have some down-time after those back-to-back conferences last month?
Ha.
Ha ha.
No.
I've gotten maybe 1800 words on my STBB/NaNo project? I'll probably have to drop out.
What I DO have are applications for a Bibliographic Society of America fellowship (which I can send off as soon as a second person confirms they are gonna do a rec letter for me) and an application for an Emerging Scholar Prize (which I can send off as soon as my diss chair says she likes it). I have a diss chapter my chair is pleased with, I have a set of essay edits due in January, and I have an outline with bits for a collaborative article. Also, I got some good feedback from my writing group on my fannish literary history project, so it's just to keep adding to that, bit by bit.
But in the meantime there's all of the attendant stress of holidays plus seasonal depression (it's dark! it's cold! DISLIKE!) plus getting roped into other things ongoing, and yeah. YEAH.
Did I mention I'm tired?
