So Much Teaching...
Nov. 9th, 2020 05:32 pmI just posted on FB that I'm surprisingly busy for a pandemic.
Wednesday this week will mark the opening of the LAST week of my asynchronous writing class at the Loft. I spent a good part of today doing some last minute video lecture recording and editing. I still have one lecture to write, because I am the Queen of last minute deadlines.
I found out on Saturday that Thursday of this week will be the opening of my FIRST week of a four week Zoom class for the Loft that I'm co-teaching with Kate Johnston for readers called, "Reading the (Whole) Room: Race and Queerness in Science Fiction and Fantasy." Luckily, I've been doing some of the reading prep for this class since summer or I'd be in full panic mode right now.
This new class is part of the Loft's new "night owl" program and STARTS at 10PM and goes until midnight. I may die. I, my friends, am a morning lark.
Then, I lost my mind an proposed a master level class for the following semester, so.
Meanwhile, I am trying to finish a story that I'm overdue on for an anthology. I tacked on a crap ending just to have AN ending knowing that I will not be able to stand that and will go back and fix it tomorrow. I still need to plot something due in February.
I'm not normally this busy when there's not a plague on.
Plus, I've had to try to squirt this little yahoo with antibiotics every day.

And, y'all, I don't know if I managed to say, but we have a new president.
