Once, again, it's been a while. I've been deeply mired in my dissertation. I have a standalone piece that I'm about to shop out for publication, and it looks like I'm going on the job market. I wasn't planning on fully going on the market this year. I thought I would try to find some positions where it would be ok that I'm still working on the dissertation, but my supervisor seemed confident that I can finish the whole thing by July, which means I can apply for PhD-in-hand positions at the APA East this December.

Oddly enough, while finishing the dissertation this year has been a goal, I thought I would end up working for an extra year. Now, I'm looking a being a post-doc, which opens up more positions for me. Of course, the other part of that means that I'm about to finish the degree I've been working toward for about 12 years now.

Now, I'm letting it all sink in, sending out requests for letters of rec, working on my CV, and getting ready for the meat market which is the academic philosophy job market.
