WP Work covid-19: day 327 | US: GA | info | act
Today, I worked on a bit of grading and teaching miscellany before I started a draft for Norman Mailer’s essay “In the Red Light”—his 1964 account of the Republican convention in San Francisco. My friend and society colleague Jason Mosser wrote most of what I started with, and I worked my Wikipedia formatting magic. I wrote the lead, and edited some of what he sent. I’ll need to add a bit more to the whole thing, including the bibliography, before I publish it to the main space. Mosser’s been on a roll—first, “Superman Comes to the Supermarket” and now this. Nice work.
I need to get to work on my letter for my post-tenure review coming up. I think I know how I’m going to start it. I’ve been thinking about it over the past couple of days during my runs, and I just need to sit down and write it.
Happy weekend, all.
