Jun. 24th, 2011 04:24 pmI'm halfway between medlars and dissertation. Chapter Four is there, asking me why I haven't started writing it yet. I suspect I haven't started writing it yet because the notes have been sitting on my desk for three weeks and I can't for the life of me remember what Chapter Four is supposed to be about.
*miniscule period of time where I consult my door, which contains my dissertation outline (on one side - on the other it contains a complete calendar for the year 1305 including dusk and moon phases and a breakdown of what work I really ought to get done between now and the end of 2012 - my door is more intelligent than I am at the present moment)*
I'm writing about techniques historians can use to get history into fiction. Now I want to know why I couldn't remember that, given it's what I've been working on for eighteen months now (which is why I have a pile of notes). This makes me wonder if I left my brain at the doctor's this afternoon and if it's worth my while walking back there to look for it.
I think I need more coffee.
