change of plans

June 28th, 2011

My editor had an intervention with me last week…remember the book I’ve been working on for the past five years? Well, I finally really have to turn it in. By the end of the year. So my editor suggested gently that considering how much work I have left, perhaps going to Chicago for the fall semester was not the best idea, and could I maybe switch my visit to the spring?

Fortunately this seems to be okay with the Chicago people.

I’m working hard, though. Here I am posing as my therapist for a scene I have to draw.

Today June’s fascinating gay bar series on Slate takes an in-depth look at Stonewall. Plus there’s a funny slide show about gay bar names.
