A Feeling of Accomplishment, Sort Of
It was all of 1,100 words. It took me three days. That's sad--I should be able to write 1,100 words just loosening up my fingers.
But it was of a book that I admire and for an academic journal in which I am trying to publish a longer article (not The Pomegranate but another journal.)
So it was almost like writing a response paper: "The authors make points X,Y, and Z. Which one was salient? Which sentences should I quote?" And so on.
Obviously, I cannot post the review here before it appears in the journal, but at some point maybe I can make a link from my book review page.
