There is quite a bit of work to be done on Carley’s and my project website before the draft is due in just over a week. I have changed the theme and set up pages for each decade. I think that giving each decade its own page makes the website easy to navigate. Once we have added images, I think it will be much better looking. Carley and I have split up the decades evenly, so I will be writing on the 1950s, 1970s, 1990s, and making the overall timeline and introduction on the homepage. Getting the writing done will be my priority over the next week, and the images may come later. I’m hoping to at least present a framework of the argument that we are making.
Truman’s midterm break is next week, so we will not be able to visit Special Collections again for research and scanning images until after the draft is due. I will have no trouble completing most of the writing, but we still haven’t looked at much material from the 1990s.
I have my work cut out for me over the next week, but since I’m not worrying about images for now, it is manageable.
I am glad to see that you have a plan for your continued writing and research, Kathryn. It is all coming together! Dr. Brown
I believe in all of us to power through website creation this week to get to the goal of draft completion. Motivational Comments!
I cannot wait to see the finished product! Those are some fun decades!
Sounds like you have a lot of work done as well as a lot to do. I hope you have a lot of success managing hoe your site will operate!
