As an Independent Scholar I am not under the same burdens to publish. But as a scholar I have a dedication to putting my information and data out into the world. I also believe in challenging the notion of academic publishing as being an insular system of people only writing for themselves and people just like them. I am a scholar and I want my work to benefit the world. So I publish where I can. I have academic publications coming up in the new year...but I also have various blogs that I have been asked to contribute to. So I do!
I have a book coming out in the new year through the Progressive Christian Alliance Press and a forthcoming peer reviewed article.
