I’m beginning systematic work on a journal article which has been in my mind for over 10 years. First came to me during a qualitative methods class in graduate school. Do you know how hard it is to bring this together after carrying it that long in your mind? I have files and papers, research done by students over the years to corroborate what I found, notebooks, even transparencies. It has to do with gender and race in children’s picture books, a subject overdone in articles already but I have a new “twist”. I’m good at twists. Twists and interesting article titles tend to get you published and into conferences. It will be amazing to bring this project to fruition, one of those long-term goals I’ve had that will feel good to accomplish.
