Published a piece today titled (or perhaps subtitled? Getting a literature Ph.D will turn you into anemotional trainwreck, not a professor.". The author speaks from experience. There are several poignant moments, like this:. So you won’t get a tenure-track job. Why should that stop you? So what do I tell my children? They taught us that if we were ...

Words, words: December 2012
http://nmara77.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
A collection of words on subjects ranging from academia to Catholicism to family life and life in general. Wednesday, December 5, 2012.

Words, words: August 2014
http://nmara77.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
A collection of words on subjects ranging from academia to Catholicism to family life and life in general. Tuesday, August 19, 2014. Having rediscovered my old blog while trying to get out some unrelated frustration, I read a post or two about going back to school when back-to-school meant I. Doodle and Chiclette, as they were named many years ago on the blog, are now going into 3rd and 1st grade, respectively. Looking at this blog, that's a bit surreal.

Words, words: Why I Can't Write
http://nmara77.blogspot.com/2013/11/why-i-cant-write.html
A collection of words on subjects ranging from academia to Catholicism to family life and life in general. Thursday, November 21, 2013. Why I Can't Write. I don't write on this blog any more.

Monday, February 24, 2014. This Week: 24th February 2014. Wet again. I am so over all this rain! My comfy snowflake pyjamas. A Country in the Moon. A supersoft pink lap blanket for Rose. I succumbed to pester power in the wool shop on Saturday. I only went in for a circular sock needle to replace my nice Knitpro one that Tevye sat on and snapped, and came out with three balls of this James C Brett Flutterby. In pale pink. It is only polyester but ridiculously soft. To Marie getting a shower. Friday: Mayb...
