I remarked three weeks ago that I thought the semester was flying.  It is indeed a slippery one.  By my calendar, it is Week 9.  The great push towards the end of the semester is on.

Today, I am excited to contribute my first guest post to Conditionally Accepted, a blog sharing stories about scholars on the margins of the academy.  I met one of the Conditionally Accepted editors via Twitter this past summer at my big annual conference and hoped I could contribute my experiences working in a contingent position to his project.

I am not quiet when it comes to my opinions on my work and marriage, parenthood or tenure.  The title I have chosen for this guest blog post is forceful “I’m Not on the Tenure Track and I’m Not Sorry About It”), and thus, I’m a little uneasy about it.  Strange that I’m apologizing for my unapologetic title.

I do hope you’ll read it, and please tell me what you think.
