    Wait, that doesn't make any sense; how does one travel the galaxy on less than thirty Altairian dollars a day?

  • Selected a significant passage from book

    "Hawking’s life story and his science are rife with paradoxes. Things are often not what they seem. Here is a tale in which beginnings are endings; cruel circumstances lead to happiness... And most paradoxical of all, a man whose physical appearance inspires shock and pity has led us joyfully to where the boundaries of time and space ought to be—but are not."
  • Made list of questions for interview

  • Met with Mr. Richard about putting me into contact with potential interviewees.

  • Filled out most of my timeline.

    It was inevitable.
  • Interview Scheduled

  • Estimated completion of An Unfettered Mind

    Actually, I expect to lose interest after the project but regain it months later and THEN finish the book.
