Workplan:

At the moment I am wanting to write about the history of the housing association movement, but I know very little about it, so am having to do some reading.
I shall probably do more on English and Scottish writers, as topics occur to me.
Likewise British biography.

In the course of writing about William Blake, I came across a topic whose neglect so far seems quite as surprising as Gandhi (this I attempted to remedy) - Michelangelo. I do not dare write anything on Michelangelo, apart from a definition.
