I've started working on my novel again. Getting started after not writing for so long was hard. Getting on with it and just write, now that I'm actually trying to get a grasp on the theoretical side of things, is even harder. And yet, I need to write in order to get better at it.
Interesting Metafilter discussion that hit pretty closely to home. (I've found that doodling helps me to keep my mind from wandering. My habit of drawing celtic knotwork during lectures and meetings tends to irritate the sh*t out of some people, though.)

Hmmmm. Not quite back from hiatus yet, but getting there.
The purpose of this web site is to set out all of the Christian writings that are believed to have been written in the first and second centuries, as well as a few selected from the early third. I have also included non-Christian documents that may have special bearing on the study of early Christianity in order to make this web site a comprehensive sourcebook. I have provided links to English translations for all of these documents. When available, the work has also been provided in the original language, usually Greek. I have also provided information and scholarly opinion regarding the background, authorship, dating, and provenance of these documents.
