I’m reading about and considering candidates for a nonfiction project about people who _______.

I’m reading Across America on an Emigrant Train and The Americans: The Democratic Experience and watching (when I’m not too sleepy) a DVD about Reconstruction.

I’m making time in my schedule (or planning to make time in my schedule, perhaps this Friday) to begin work on a C.V. It should not take long, which is why I’m starting it now.
