I made a significant decision the other day. I will no longer think of myself as some bum who happened to get lucky and publish some things that gained me some measure of academic respectability. I will fully inhabit my non-bumness. For example, I won't have a book sitting in a drawer for a year without seeking a publisher, as I did with the last one. I will apply for everything, seek out intellectual and academic connections with no trepidation.
