Done at last, done at last…
…thank God almighty, I’m done at last!
My essay about black women and motherhood writing is due to the good women at Bitch magazine today, and I finally finished. I haven’t pulled an all-nighter like this since freshman year of college (the time I drank a Big Gulp-size cup of black coffee which gave me nightmares about dragons when I finally did close my eyes at daybreak).
Of course finishing is just the beginning. I’ll await the feedback and revision request. In the meantime, I need to tend to my neglected children and pay some bills.
Next up: Revision of my article on transracial adoption, followed by a review of Lori Tharps’s travel essay/love story/racial coming of age tale, Kinky Gazpacho. I get to interview Ms. Tharps later this month too!
