I spent today looking at support materials for a grants panel I’m sitting on tomorrow. In many ways, it’s like reading slush but generally better written. Or at least shorter. Tomorrow, I’ll spend locked in a room with other panelists talking through each submission which should be interesting. I’m sure there are going to be things that all of us likes and things that only one of us likes and the other folks think is insane.
Makes me miss being on the Shimmer editorial board, it does.
In cat news, Marlowe seems fine although we are still on the lookout for “poop on a rope.” He does, however, hide under the bed every time I put my shoes on. Poor guy.
So how did the grants panel go?
