when i signed the book contract, it seemed everything what pretty much ready to go. i mean, the work is nearly finished already, and the editors just asked me to make a few final changes before sending it off to the final commission and then the press.
but damn those last little changes are taking me a while. everytime i walk into the library i find yet another book i havent considered but absolutely should, authors i have overlooked, articles, texts, images.....i spent 6 hours yesterday just editing my bibliography, which will be a small part in the back that no one except a few losers will bother to look at.
but things are moving along: i have a new title, some ideas for the cover, the set up , the font and so on. i have been given permission to take stuff out of a whole series of different london libraries since the stuff i need access to is pretty scattered. today i was at LSE trying to get various documents there, then back at my normal base of operations to take another few works out....and now i face the daunting task of trying to actually READ them all....when i will find the time i cannot imagine.
