jazzfishMichael Stackpole's new book is in at Walden's, but Paths of the Dead isn't. Grr. Maybe next week, whenever next week's shipment comes in.
Paper is slow going. I'm writing on how in TS Eliot's poetry, water generally symbolizes spiritual rebirth, and dryness symbolizes spiritual death. And I'm going to get 3000 words out of this somehow. (Tons of stuff on Waste Land and "Dry Salvages" of course, and "Gerontion" is good for a page or so, but that's pretty close to it. Small references in "Burnt Norton" and The Hollow Men. Gah.)
Amazing how much I can write as long as it's not for my paper.
