I've not done a wordcount for a while - as work has largely been on a virtual level, but inching forward. I fear I may have to sacrifice reading or reading every book I write about or cut down the reading list. It begins to look like a tight squeeze - the ecology chapter looks likely to burst, and the feminism chapter, with Tiptree and Khatru still to cover, is 7000+ when it needs to be 5800.There will be trimming, but this is overshot. I may have to find somewhere else for Pamela Sargent; Butler is already elsewhere, as will be Joan Vinge, Elizabeth Lynn, Patricia McKillop, Andre Norton, Marion Zimmer Bradley and Leigh Brackett.
