A lot happened on the writing front today. I’ve been asked to contribute a chapter to a forthcoming book (tentatively titled A Day in the Life) about careers in LIS. I’ll be writing about a “typical” day in my position. (This ought to be interesting…)
Later in the afternoon I was contacted by someone who’s been helping me with The Collector’s Guide to Dean Koontz (no, I don’t know when it’ll be out yet) requesting that I write the forward to his Dean Koontz Encyclopedia. Considering Tim Powers will be writing the introduction, I was honored and accepted the assignment immediately.
Also, WebJunction has agreed to publish two more articles of mine. One on cleaning up Quicktime and another on how to create Firefox search extensions. I’ll post links as soon as they’re available.
