My general exam defense was this morning--an hour and a half of answering questions about the essays and syllabi I submitted based on my reading lists. It was a tough hour and a half, with challenging questions asking me to expand on and clarify my exams, but I got through it, and I passed!
And now to spend a few days reading some of the things I've been putting off--Neil Gaiman's Duran Duran book, Alison Bechdel's new book, the new grit lit anthology--and then I'll start thinking about my prospectus. I plan to continue to post here as I think through my dissertation ideas, and of course I still have my Hegemonic Bulwark blog where I write about academic life in general.
