Formal book proposal with cover letter and 13K writing sample out the door.

Now the waiting game starts.

Come, fill the Cup, and in the fire of Spring
Your Winter-garment of Repentance fling:
The Bird of Time has but a little way
To flutter--and the Bird is on the Wing.

Today, I have to get my classes up and ready for Tuesday. Ugh. But I will also work on revising my chapter. I think I'm close to done...

Then I'll read a chunk of that thesis while the hatchling naps.
