Oh, it's been a quiet year. My only scholarly writings were the annual bibliography and my contributions to "The Year's Work in Tolkien Studies," both in the volume of Tolkien Studies that came out in 2025 but was dated 2024. I co-edited that volume, but as I've retired that'll be the last one. Though I've signed up to do the next bibliography, and I may be back in the "Year's Work," though that's going in abeyance for the next issue.
I also had a report on the Mythopoeic Society's online conference, copied from this blog and put in the Society's newsletter, Mythprint.
And 22 formal concert reviews published online, the last in October. There will be no more of those, at least for a while until my health gets sorted out.
Places I've stayed overnight away from home:
South San Francisco, CA
Pittsburgh, PA
Ashland, OR
Brisbane, CA
Santa Clara, CA
Two overnight trips up to the City, one for a conference and one for a series of concerts in close temporal proximity, both times staying in airport hotels just outside of the City where it's cheaper; one glorious trip to my brother's wedding far away, my only plane flights of the year; one drive to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival; and, sigh, another stay in the hospital.
