It has been 1 month since your last confession...

Okay, so far messages from thesis island aren't exactly regular...much like my periods of thesis productivity! In fact, I've actually been busy writing, in preparation for an imminent trip back to Old Blighty, complete with a side trip to Amsterdam to deliver a conference paper. I sent off my latest 25-page attempt at coherence earlier this week...now I just need to turn it into a 15 minute talk, and later make it work as a thesis chapter. As usual I pushed the deadline to its breaking point. One of these days I will figure out how to write regularly when my back isn't against the wall! Sigh.

Anyhow, since I will be travelling for the next few weeks, I hope to have new inspiration for the VVR. Perhaps I'll conduct an experiment to see how I write after going across 8 time zones on a 14 hour flight...
