Getting Started…Again

Well, it’s been a while (8 months, to be exact!). A lot has happened in the meantime — I finished my PhD and started a new job, to start with (more on that later) — but I’m excited to get back into a regular schedule with this blog.

This morning I had a nice surprise that helped motivate this post. I won a prize! The amazing Out Walking the Dog blog selected me (at random, with the help of a dog) to win a copy of Still the Same Hawk: Reflections on Nature and New York (edited by John Waldman). I’d like to thank Melissa for the kind shout-out, as well. Go check out her blog!
