Fuck yeah, sharks!
Or, er, academia!
The paper is done. More or less. I've just completed the second and near final draft. It clocks in at 7,791 words including over 50 footnotes which are about 50% citations and 50% asides featuring valuable information. I still need to standardize the format of said footnotes, look up a couple of episode numbers, do the bibliography and give it a final read, but otherwise I'm good. I will send it in tomorrow night or Tuesday morning.
I think I've done some significant work that advances ways of thinking about the issues the paper examines and also laid out a blueprint for future research on the subject (my own and others).
I think I've also done right by those -- some fictional, some not -- that it was important for me to do right by in writing this. I couldn't ask for a lot more.
And now, I'm going to bed.
Thanks to everyone who put up with the blow-by-blow updates on Twitter.
