Finally. It was several years in the making, but I have just electronically turned in my manuscript of the animal rights book to the publisher. It came in at between 90,000 and 100,000 words, not surprising given that “short-winded” is not exactly my strong suit.
I can’t tell you what a relief it is to be done. Much work remains, of course. Editing can be a cruel and painful process. But most of it now is in the hands of the publisher.
I am going to take a week off, except for SHS, rest, and paint the bedroom. And then I will get back to the lecture circuit, writing articles, and return to recording Brave New Bioethics podcasts, which I sorely neglected in the press of the looming book deadline.
You have a decision to make: double or nothing.
For this week only, a generous supporter has offered to fully match all new and increased donations to First Things up to $60,000.
In other words, your gift of $50 unlocks $100 for First Things, your gift of $100 unlocks $200, and so on, up to a total of $120,000. But if you don’t give, nothing.
So what will it be, dear reader: double, or nothing?
Make your year-end gift go twice as far for First Things by giving now.
