Academia calls. Calls for academia.
Dec. 8th, 2005 09:34 amSo I've been googling for creative academic outlets, and got a few results, but they were all calls for papers from one to five years ago. It seems I need to snowball-search in this instance, or even paper-search, to find the places that would be interested in academic essays on science fiction.
(Edit: I was brilliant enough to add "2006" to my search, and that helped a little.)
I do have a couple of other topics in the back of my mind for publication, and I need to get them on paper, because frankly, every time I search for my dream job, they ask for a record of one's publications, and I don't think student newspapers count, even if I was chief editor for quite some time. In fact, I think I was the only chief editor that paper ever had, but that still won't help me much now.
But the main thing is to get the proverbial foot into Academia's door. Now to see what I can add to it.
Here's to the future.
