Year end

As the year ends it may look like I've settled into a relaxing holiday in California, but there's lots left to do from the year just ending - and next year to plan too! First thing due is my revised "Resource Use Decisions" paper, which will appear in a special issue of Himalaya. My draft is 5000 words but the editors would like it to grow to 7000 (!). Then there's "Queer Christianities," for which this is crunch time: final manuscript is due in mid-January. That means lots of editing of other people's work, and drafting the introductory apparatus. And then it's just the usual stuff - finalizing the next semester's syllabus, firming up the religious studies curriculum for 2014-15, and... reading new stuff!
