--- title: 'A Slight Snag' date: '2007-11-05T19:23:04-05:00' permalink: /a-slight-snag/ tags: - work --- The only problem with refocusing this blog on my research is that, of late, *I’m not doing any*, as, well, it’s November. This week, I have a set of project outlines and a set of term paper proposals to comment on, and then a series of small administrative things that need to get written: the copy to be used in publicizing the symposium I’m organizing for next semester; a proposal for a symposium for next academic year; a course description for spring; a speaker introduction. And then I need to sit myself down and write my MLA presentation. I’m going to do some portion of the drafting here, as [Miriam](http://littleprofessor.typepad.com/the_little_professor/2007/09/in-person.html) began some time back. So with any luck, this space should play host to what appears to be actual writing in the very near future.
