7/21: Two midsummer notes:

In August I’ll be in Montreal with the rest of the North American wing of the discipline. I’ll be presenting on the regular program on Saturday at 8:30 at a panel on Art & Money in Creative Living, and at the Economic Sociology / Organizations, Occupations, and Work preconference at 10:15 on Friday. I’ll also be rushing around at the Economic Sociology roundtables at 8:30 on Sunday, as Emily Barman and I organized ’em. Hope to see you in Montreal.

In November plans are coming together for a miniature “book tour” and a couple of related talks, workshops, + seminars on new work up and down the East Coast, starting November 7 at Yale. Holler at me if you want me to come and wave my new book around or workshop a messy new paper with you!

6/13: It is happening (now with cover).

4/2: Uploaded a new working paper over at SocArxiv. Thanks again to the SocArxiv team for making this great repository happen.

3/31: I was surprised to find that my book happened on Amazon the other day, complete with twitter-egg cover image. I’m guessing this is what happens when the publisher registers the ISBNs? In any case, it’s happening…
