I haven’t posted for a while, both because I’ve been out of town, and because I’ve been trying to keep the mindless jabber in this journal to a minimum.  (It’s supposed to be vaguely professional.)

But, I don’t want this journal to diiiie, especially since my statistics tell me that some people actually read this journal.     So I’ll play a bit of catch-up, tell you where I’m at.

First and foremost, I’m doing my undergrad Thesis in Classical Studies this year – sounds boring, doesn’t it?  (Assuming that you’re not a nerd like me, of course)  Except!  It’s less boring than it sounds (I hope) because I get to do a graphic novel.  It will be a retelling of Perseus’ story, using accounts of as many different authors as I could obtain.

Don’t worry, there’s as essay to go along with it, so it actually IS scholarly.

To keep track of all my thoughts over the course of the thesis, and to garner interest in it, I’ve made up a little site, all about it.  It’s got images, a progress blog, background info on the myth… There’s not a terrible lot up there, but the project is really just in its infancy.  Expect more.  Much more.

This is where most of my effort will be going, so if this blog is a bit quiet, you may want to check that one.

Cheers, all!
