One of the funny things about indexing books about Albert the Great is that you have all these entries and subentries like "Arabic sources, Albert's use of," whereas usually you use someone's surname. It sounds so informal.

Ughhh, the PDF for the proofs I'm indexing on Albert the Great's Arabic sources is locked, so I can't copy and paste names and titles from it.

Halfway done with this shift, and only 7 pages left of indexing to do.
Luckily I have a Rivers of London book to read when I finish.

My current project, "Environmentalism from Below," is one of those emotionally difficult projects that call for frequent pauses to breathe or meditate.
(And also to end capitalism.)

"Therefore, if a quiddity that <our intellect> abstracts from a particular thing possessing a quiddity is a quiddity that does not possess a quiddity, in understanding it, <our intellect> will understand the quiddity of a separate substance that is of such a disposition..."
FB Memories from 3 years ago assuring me that, while indexing the Dao De Jing is hard, it's still easier than Aquinas.

Hey, fellow freelance editorial peeps. Is #EditorSprint still a thing? Could it be again, once a week maybe?
No phones. No socials. Just focus for one hour. Comment with your goal beforehand, and check back in after to see how it went.
Anyone in?

Latest book index submitted (for a comedy memoir – very silly, very sweary) and next one under way (on women in East Asian film – beautiful and inspiring). This can be a brilliant job.
