Your attention, please.
You will note that it has been some time since I have committed an entry to this journal. It is not, I assure you, from lack of material to criticize. If anything, the monstrous, soul-killing behemoth of western culture is worse now than it was when I put fingers to keyboard to discuss Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.
What has changed is the amount of time I have to devote to my online life. My book The Urbaniak Effect has been put on the back burner for now, as I have been finishing my dissertation. However, when I was last dining with my editor I told her of an idea I have for a series of detective novels, about a young, idealistic grad student who uses her analytical skills and vast understanding of culture to solve murders, while simultaneously balancing her career and increasingly complicated love life. Look for the first one in the fall of next year!
