Starting point

Having spent years deciding not to write a weblog, and entering perhaps the busiest point in my career to date, I've decided to start one now.

Postings will reflect upon literature and culture (mainly American) - things I'm reading and seeing. Because of the nature of what I'm doing day-to-day (writing a PhD thesis), postings may also have a faintly academic flavour to them.

I look forward to comments on future posts.
