Book Projects

I promised a post every Monday!

Well the big news is that I have sent my short book on The Female Man (by Joanna Russ) to its final beta readers. As I am no longer heading for the US archives this summer the plan is to hand it in on the 1st of August, and then re-start the Geoffrey Trease book.

I started my book on Geoffrey Trease around 2014, and I have written drafts of all but the intro and conclusion so:

August and September: work though draft.
October and November: All secondary reading
December: Intro and Conclusion.

I don't have a pubisher and there is no one obvious. I will not seek an academic publisher because I firmly believe books should be cheap.

At the moment I am hesitating between self publishing and charging, and simply putting it on my blog and elsewhere to download free.

All opinions welcome.
