This semester, starting tomorrow Monday, January 9, I will do some form of research and writing every day. How I will do this:
On busy days, like Monday, January 9, or every Tuesday and Thursday, I will get up 1/2 hour earlier and do research and writing in that time. On other days I will do more research and writing, on some version of my semester plan. The important point is to get research done during the day, on weekdays, during the semester.
The plan is possible this semester because I am only teaching 2.5 courses, and on a Tuesday-Thursday schedule, no less, and because internecine fighting has been quelled. Otherwise it would not be possible.
Axé.

Good luck!
I need to get on some kind of scholarship diet, too. Or rather, should we call it scholarship gavage?
Gavage, that’s funny! Diet, I hadn’t thought of it that way and I guess it is why I sort of gag at all the time management techniques people have. I’m thinking of it instead as relaxation time!!!
scholarship gavage ?…. hahahaha, that sounds funny and érotique
Yes, when things lighten up on you you can make a lot of progress.
Thank God.
