I sent the pages. They needed more proofreading, and I attached a full page of explanations, caveats, apologies, and disclaimers. But it's off. I was ready to stop. I know I should have proofread it again, but it's a draft, and I have tons of prep and papers to grade, and I need to get back to my real job. I think--I hope--the supervisor will be fine with that.
Now I'm going to eat a peanut butter cookie before I go to bed and read a few pages of Breaking Dawn, the last in the Twilight series. Has anyone else read these books? The gender dynamics (along with much of the writing itself) are killing me. At this point, I'm just chugging along so I can see how it all ends, but I'm kind of annoyed at having to go through 700 more pages of the exact same plot moves and character conversations in order to get there. Why didn't I write some bestselling vampire books?

Congratulations! I'm sure your advisor will be fine with it as is. You should be really proud.
You *should* write some bestselling vampire series. I haven't read them, but my sister-in-law (Sean's wife) is a huge fan. I'll probably get around to reading them some day.
