Current Projects

I’ve learned, over time, that I work on several projects simultaneously. This sometimes is a slow go. Yet, I always gravitate to this way of working.

I’ve completed 2 books, both at different copy-editing stages.

Imagining Amsterdam is a novella, which is a reading Plato’s Symposium, takes place in 2030, in Amsterdam, where Javier visits his long-time college mentor, a professor of literature, and a woman. The arch of the narrative is Javier’s evolution, from college student to 30-something young adult.

A Letter to Students: The Struggle for Identity in an Uneven World, non-fiction, is, as the title suggests, “a letter” based on my 30+ years of experience, and told through personal stories.

I am also creating academic-writing-technology pieces exploiting the too, SCALAR, to examine multimedia ways of producing texts. This use, I’d argue, is likely to be the future of (some) academic publishing.

The 2 projects: The Covid-19 Online Semester (about to get an overhaul); Social Class and the Environment (needs editing + awaiting next course, S2021)
