Beginning my book

Today I started to bash out a rough plan for the book idea I mentioned here. Truth be told, I had quite forgotten about it, probably due to the fact we went on holiday shortly after I had had it. Yesterday, however, I came across it again, and decided it was worth a shot. I think the story of my years at university is one worth telling; there is a lot I could say about that episode of my life. I also think that I need something more hefty to work on. Blogging is great and I certainly intend to keep updating my site, but there’s only so much you can do with this form of short prose. I want to begin something far longer, which I can return to over weeks or months, which I could then print and even publish. I could go into much greater detail with it, taking my time to explore issues which just get skirted over in blog entries. That, then, is what I began today, but don’t expect any results soon: it, like my Master’s thesis, will probably be slow going, but, like my Master’s, I fully intend to see it through.
