May is dead, long live June!
Unless the hatchling hatches a little early, which it might, this should be my last real month of work for a while. So:
- Polish off T4, send out the proposal.
- Complete referee report.
- Draft up most of invited chapter 1.
- Start on the co-authored paper.
- Do some admin work cleaning up our course offerings (ugh, but this needs doing very soon)
Some plugging away at B2 would be very nice, but I doubt I can swing it.
Today: T4 cleanup, proposal drafting.
Remaining 2025 goals:
- Book #1 (solo) - submit full draft to the publisher (due in December)
- Book #2 - draft proposal
- Paper #1 (with colleague A) - draft and present it at conferences in July and September
- Paper #2 (with colleague B) - draft and submit to special issue (due in August)
- Paper #3 (with colleague C) - finish draft and submit to journal
- Paper #4 (with colleague F) - draft and submit to special issue (due in June)
- Grant #1 (with colleagues G, H, I) - develop and, if we can all agree, submit proposal
June goals:
- Book #1 - conduct interviews and incorporate interview data
- Paper #3 - finalize and submit to journal
- Paper #4 - finalize and submit to journal
Stretch goals:
- Book #1 - format for publisher
- Book #2 - work on proposal
Did some cleaning up, drafted the proposal.
Nothing today, just a meeting with my usual co-author to discuss B6 and maybe even B7.
June Goals- Continue with new research study: data collection and analysis
This is a light June. I was able to schedule and conduct a new interview today for the study, and have one other scheduled for this week.I am waiting for another participant to schedule as well. I am not formally presenting at the conference I am going to next week, just helping with research consultations. The grant I applied for has this language "successful submissions will hear by June 1" so since I did not hear anything, I am assuming it was unsuccessful. That seems weird, but I am not sure how else to interpret that. I can still work on this project without the funding, so I will see if the collaborator still is interested.
Pre-orders for my book went live today!

Did that. B7 is shelved for now.
Also started drafting a quick pitch for my preferred press for T4.
Bit of T4, some more proposal work. Then I have to start on cleaning up those courses.
Quote from: Parasaurolophus on June 03, 2025, 03:12:44 PMBit of T4, some more proposal work. Then I have to start on cleaning up those courses.
Did some of all of the above. The T4 intro is now clean, and only small things remain in the text itself, barring a last run-through later.
Also, my co-author had already generated an entire proposal for the new book from the other day, minus a few small bits I have to plug in. Wow.
Parasaurolophus, you have a great co-author
I'm waiting on my dilatory copyeditor to finish up stuff for book 2. Good indexer, not a good copyeditor, and not dealing with her again.
Book 1 was going to go to the printer, but I noticed they spelt my husband's last name wrong in the dedication. So, glad I caught that and now it is at the printing house. Publication in October.
Was going to do a collaboration with someone for another book, but after 8 months of research, the topic was getting pretty dull, so we decided not to proceed. Might spin off the material into a shorter piece.
Yes, he's very good at being on the ball and not dropping it.
Today, T4 cleanup.

Did that.
Time may be short today, I'm not sure. If so, then I just want to finish the identifying notes in T4. If there's more time, I'd like to make a dent in locating the quoted material, and maybe start reading for a referee report and do a bit more course housekeeping.
Forsooth, my copyeditor has made progress! I might actually be able to get this to the press BEFORE my vacation later this month! Hurray!

Time was short. Hatchling woke extremely early and didn't go back to sleep. Almost but didn't quite finish the identifying notes.
Bit more time today. Will finish the notes, do a bit of the course stuff, and start on the refereeing.
I just conducted another great interview for the study. Happy weekend!

Good progress on papers 3 and 4 this week. Think I'll get at least one out the door next week - and maybe both if my coauthor on #3 is able to prioritize.

Done the ID notes, read half the paper.
I will chase down a few of the classical texts quoted in T4, then finish reading for referee report 1.

Did both.
When I'm back from a London conference, I should get back my copyedits and will do the final round of proofing the next week or two, get Book 2 to the press, and then go on holiday (vacation)! This book is the last obligation I have for a long while, though I have another book contract which will be the activity for the next academic year. I'm thinking as I'm now retired, this will be the last book for me.
Nothing today.
I didn't have time for anything, but want to note a minor (but highly improbable victory): when the hatchling fell asleep I opened T4 to hunt down a couple of references while I made sure he was settled in, and I decided to take one last stab at a completely obscure reference which I'd spent hours failing to track down. And this time, I hit the magic combination of keywords!
Turns out the author's name was heavily corrupted, in ways which are impossible to predict. Well, maybe the corruption would make sense to a Swedish speaker. But anyway, I tracked the bugger down!
There's at least one other that I think is just impossible, though. I may end up turning to the Fora.
Not much time today, but I'll chase down a few more and start writing up a referee report.

Congratulations! How exciting!
I am at a conference now, and since my podcast episode about the forthcoming book came out today, I sent an email with the podcast link and a discount for book pre-orders to the organization's listserv. This organization is different than the one who is copublishing the book, but the fields are similar. It is fun to talk to people about it in person, but a shame the book is coming out in a few weeks instead of while I am here!

1300 words of the report. Nearly done.
Finishing that report today, plus some T4 chasing, and maybe starting to read for the second report.

Podcasts are great ways to publicise your work. Let's hope it spreads the word to your colleagues about your book.
Quote from: Parasaurolophus on June 10, 2025, 06:58:26 AMFinishing that report today, plus some T4 chasing, and maybe starting to read for the second report.
Done (R&R).
Chasing down more ancient quotes material for T4, reading for the second report, and more of the departmental housecleaning.

Some of all.
Time will be short today. Just gonna do some more tracking down for T4, and reading for the second referee report.
I got back from a conference yesterday but forgot to share that I was in a session and got a text from my spouse to check my email. I could not believe it, but our manuscript which we have been waiting for almost a year for feedback/a decision was accepted with minor revisions! This will be their first publication since they are not in academia. We have to update it a little since some of what we wrote about it is already obsolete (tech-related) but now my sibling (who has a doctorate in my field) is jealous because hu and I have never written together!
that's awesome news darkstarrynight. Congratulations!
I am in the thick of proofing a very big edition. I have done 100 pages, 500 pages to go. All the footnotes are proofread, but it is the text. All nitpicking. I am hoping to get this done before vacation in about 2 weeks. It will be close.

Got an R&R today, so adding it to my list.
Still hoping to get paper #4 out the door this weekend, but waiting on my coauthor, so finished up a draft of my proposal Book #2 today instead. Not sure when I'll actually have time to write the book, but perhaps I can chip away at the margins until my time opens up.
Really need to focus on Book #1 starting next week (been procrastinating a bit on that one lately).

Nearly done with T4. The referee reading is going very slowly. Sigh.
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, did 50 pages of proofing the book length edition. each day. A lot of looking at manuscript and checking the transcription, rinse and repeat. Luckily, so far nothing major..just typos, a couple words. Only 550 pages left to go! (Urgh). That said, I will be mighty glad to get this edition out of my hair.
Not much time today; will try to finish tracking down the citations in T4, and if I can make progress on the referee reading.

Didn't quite make it (figuring out that an attribution to Naevius was actually supposed to be Terence took... a while). There are still a couple of mystery references, too. But you can only do so much, and when someone is loosely translating a roughly approximated memory of a text...
Just finishing the chasing down today.
Not going to have much time today, so reading for the referee report, I guess.

Did another 50 pages today and happily realised that I've already done 250 pages of the rest in previous checks with a colleague. So that cuts the work down a lot. So, 250 pages left.

Only a little bit, but I did a little work on the book proposal and sorted my benefits allocation and an expense report that had to go through a very confusing system (where the instructions only loosely track what you have to do).
I'd like to finish that bloody reading for the referee report today.

Did a spurt. So only 50 more pages to go. I will do my best, but I'm starting to get ocular migraines, and think it is about time just to turn this beast in. it has been checked twice, and the notes copyedted by an outside party and me, so.... I hope by tomorrow afternoon to send it to the publisher, and then I can have my vacation next week guilt free.

About 800 words of the new paper, 200 of the chapter (but I also sorted out my notes on the subject from previous publications).
Book 2 with its corrections is now submitted to the press. Yippeee! The summer beckons. I am making myself as lazy as possible.

Sent in the report, read a torch and did a teensy bit of work on B2.
Hatchling woke up at the crack of dawn, so I won't have much time for anything today. Maybe a tiny bit of the chapter. Alas, I also had to decline an invitation for a keynote in Italy this November, because of Hatchling 2.

Snuck in a bit of B2, and a chunk of reading for the first of the invited chapters.
Did a bit more B2, reading for the chapter.
Vacation starts today, so a research break for a few weeks! Happy summer!

Asking for some advice/guidance here.
In my field, it's pretty normal to publish in an open access, page charges kind of journal published by some of the big international publishing houses. They generally claim quick review and fairly rapid publication. Usually about 6 months from submission to publication.
So...... I submitted a paper in January and by March 21, the handling editor had received 1 reviewer's comments and was waiting on the 2nd reviewer. Since then, bupkis.
The web site has a "email us" link. I've used it a couple of times to suggest either the editor find another reviewer or make the decision based on their own judgement and a single review. I've been polite and professional with all my communications with them. I'm an academic editor for another large online journal and have used a single review to make a decision when needed. I received a fulsome apology each time - probably from some low level minion in a back office in Asia. Last week, I found the email address for the editor in chief and contacted them. Radio silence.
So.... do I continue to wait as a result of sunk costs or do I withdraw the paper and try again elsewhere. From what I have read on the fora, some fields may take nearly forever to complete peer review but that's much less common in mine (health related). Am I being overly impatient? Thoughts and suggestions?
Thanks.

I was an Editor in Chief for a quarterly. Email them again. I sometimes got a bit overwhelmed with getting reviewers if the journal was really busy. They are probably having a really hard time getting reviewer 2.
I made good progress on the paper yesterday, so I'll do more today. If it's roughly ship-shape by the time Hatchling 2 hatches, then it'll help buy me some publication breathing room for the next while. ('course, the books and translations do that, too). But I like for the pipeline to be full, and who knows about the two chapters I have to write.
Will also read for the chapter.
