I've been meaning to ask, what is your doctorate-to-be in? Art?

Writing. Specifically, how writers and poets engage with counterculture, and how that's effected by modern approaches to advertising and marketing.
Skade's right - it does sound fun. But, unlike him, I don't know if I'd want to read it. I tried reading my ex-stepmom's doctoral thesis last week, and I swear my head nearly popped.arwink said:Writing.

How far are you along in your thesis? That sounds very interesting. I'd love to taker a peek at it if you wouldn't mind.

Not all that far. Because it's a writing thesis rather than a lit one, I actually spend a fair amount of my time writing a novel to go alongside the thesis rather than the thesis itself.
