Piled Higher and Deeper





I have my first chapter draft due in on Friday. I'm realizing that writing a dissertation chapter is just like writing any seminar paper (wait until too late, make it too long, make all those around me miserable) only there are lots more footnotes. LOTS. Fastmiso still has me beat - his bibliography just topped out at 500 works. And I figure if 500 classicists were actually able to get a book published the odds might just be in my favor to get my own work on the shelves and ultimately buried in a footnote. I've got dreams, yes I do.
