Thanks, Dan . I’m sure twas a combination of the commentary and me being tired and not in the right head space (was hour 5 of back-to-back meetings and the week after the end of term) but it did make me feel like throwing in the towel for the project. But onwards. Tomorrow is a new day and all that
Got the most brutal feedback on some research in memory today (combined with a lot of commentary from someone trying to help but who hadn’t read the proposal). Went back to my office and cried after. Some things about academia get easier, but not others 😢

You can expect to pay permission fees for images, quotations above a certain length (there are ‘fair use’ guidelines), and quotes used as epitaphs, but just commenting on something even if in a commercial book shouldn’t cost you if it is non-fiction.
Thank you!
Made the excuse that I was just going to the toilet and would be right back during the kids’ bedtime to try and give them a chance to fall asleep by themselves. Took myself to the couch to scroll socials only to be sprung by the 4yo who asked why I lied 😟
