So, for the final time I'm getting ready to start another year of my master's course. This year is dissertation year, meaning I have to find a way to squeeze in 16-18,000 words, along with the job, the sailing etc. I've had to put forward an area of research, then over the next month I'll be pulling together a 2,000 word dissertation and research proposal. So: the broad area is Metaphysics of the Person (how flippin swanky does that sound), and for a title I'm thinking something along the lines of can determinism and personal responsibility be reconciled?

Speaking of the sailing - take a look at the new website: http://www.clipperroundtheworld.com
Only 16 months until I begin my adventure!
