Prelim update

Well, here it is, March 1st, and I still haven't finished my prelim paper. Yesterday I did reach a minor milestone - I finished typing notes from the papers I'm using as resources. (Never mind the dozen papers sitting here that I still want to read for it, nor the five books, shh.) I have to say, having a hybrid draft/outline that's 54 single-spaced pages long is fairly daunting. It's kind of worse than either of my book outlines.

I think my plan is to print everything I've got - draft, outline, notes - and divide it into the seven or eight major sections, then maybe I'll give it all a good reading through, and reorganize it some more. I've got this idea that if it's properly organized, I can just sit down and write it all fairly easily.

Or maybe I'll just tackle one of the sections. Two of them are in good shape...
