Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.
My book is out and I will get my author’s copies next week! In time for me to include the book in my tenure review! Yes, yes, yes!
I wish it were a kind of a book where I could create a blog contest and award a free copy to the winners but it is, rather, the kind of a book where people will see having to read it as punishment.
I’m kidding, the book is very good. But it’s scholarly, and the quotes are in Spanish. I will never force anybody to read it. Even the people who appear in the Acknowledgments. I’m looking straight at you, people who appear in the Acknowledgments.
The editor says it came out very pretty. And did I mention that the editor is a superstar in my field and a scholar I want to be when I grow up?
Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.
All I now need to make my academic happiness complete is to scare up a review of the book in a scholarly journal. Ol., I’m looking straight at you. If I teach Klubnikis to say, “Vive le Québec libre!”, will you do it? Her mother will slaughter me, but at least I will die as a published and reviewed author.
Shit, I wish I were more sociable and had more friends who could write reviews for me.
Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God.
