About 1700 words done so far on my final genealogy writing assignment. I'm going to finish out the structure and then go back to add more details.

I took Nathan Dylan Goodwin's writing course, and I've started work on a genealogical mystery story.

Enjoying Cal Newport's most recent book, Slow Productivity. Can we begin the Slow Genealogy movement?
