To begin today, I want to thank those friends and colleagues who took the time to check out this blog. I truly appreciate it. A blog is only as good as its readers. And this one has very good readers.

This week I have set myself three tasks: (1) I am still working the “websites with Flash” textbook, even as I create the “1718” web pages. (2) the research and writing is focused on Louis XIV’s colonial policy (hint: he didn’t have one), and (3) also this week, I am working on the Fellowship grant narrative for the NEH.

As I sat here this morning wondering whether or not to write about how, as all writers, I need an income, I just got an order from alibris for an antiquarian book that I had for sale. It sold for a tidy sum, too. It’s always good to be encouraged.

I am finding loads of books/colonial resources on Googlebooks. Today, I’ve located several sources on colonial New orleans women.

See you next time.
