September Research Thread

[Parasaurolophus]

Gotta get some of that indexing and proofing done after yesterday's wasted day. Unfortunately, other things will intrude today.

Halfway through the proofing.

Hope the hatchling naps. If so, I'll send in my other referee report and work on proofing and indexing.

30 pages and index polish to go.

[Parasaurolophus]

I'd like to get another 10-15 pages of proofing done today.

Also got another referee request this morning. Sigh.

September goals:

• Make progress on paper #1 (with colleague)
• Present paper #2 at conference (with colleagues)
• Finish revising paper #3 (solo) and send it back to the journal (due in mid-September)
• Make significant progress on book #1 (with colleague)
• Keep chipping away at book #2 (solo), hopefully receive contract

Finished a draft of book #1 yesterday - except the final chapter, which we'll hold off on for the moment. Putting this on the back burner until November.

Done all the proofing, except for the enormous list of endnotes.

[Parasaurolophus]

I expect no time today. So I'll finish the proofing. Indexing would be nice, but we'll see.

Did that.

Indexing today.

Indexing today.

Oof, done. Apart from ensuring it conforms to the house style, which has not yet been provided to me.

I'm struggling to get back into the groove on book #2 today, after putting it aside for the last month to concentrate on other things. Hopefully I can get into the zone on this project in short order...

[Parasaurolophus]

I suppose I should return to either the book or T4/T5 today. Really, I need to mark, but I'm commuting and so won't have much intarwebz to do that.

Oh, wait. I see I got the style guide. So: index polishing, plus a tiny bit of something else.
