| Sometimes, I write about other things apart from shopping and cats | July 16, 2009 | I’m pretty sure I tweeted this but don’t think I linked to it here on Spiralling Shape. So here it is, a journal article that was nearly 2 years in appearing from the time of submission to online publication. Truly I can barely remember writing it, and can’t be bothered reading it again myself, but […] |
| What’s the difference between garlic and academia | June 29, 2009 | Nothing. At last my Refractory paper appears. It’s been almost two years since I sent the initial abstract. I am worried now that it’s a whole heap of crapola that I would never write now but hey….whatever. It’s still nice to see my name in print. Like garlic…all is vanity. |

| television in the 71st century | I am working an article today and it connects to something I have previously had published. So going back to that article for the first time to quote myself (as you do!) I noticed that the whole way through all the “2s” have been printed as “7s”.

| boredom-induced coma or brain explosion: you decide | February 11, 2009 | I finally finished all the APA punctuation twiddling, the quadruple checking of everything in sight, the last minute spell check, the constant reformatting of the table of contents and plucked up the courage to send the manuscript to the publisher.
