Borden and Her Fall River<\/em> by the <a href=\"http:\/\/lizzieborden.org\/\">Fall River Historical Society<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I have been working diligently on the index for the book for months and I had planned to produce magazine issues concurrent to the indexing. However, that was not how it played out as I discovered that the concentration required to do an index for a book the size of this one, almost 1000 pages of text, was demanding and intense.<\/p>\n<p>The best way I can describe it is to say that designing and writing <em>The Hatchet<\/em> uses one part of the brain, but indexing uses the exact opposite side! It is focused detail work, and quite sloooooow-going. Ordinary books have between 3 and 4 indexible items per page. <em>Parallel Lives<\/em> averaged well over 9. There are nearly 9,000 entries in this index. <\/p>\n<p>And it is done. So now I turn to <em>The Hatchet<\/em>. Rest assured that I will be publishing the promised 4 issues this year. There is plenty of Lizzie, Fall RIver, and Victorian research to reveal, and I guarantee some amazing surprises and brand new discoveries in the months ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for all your notes and well wishes. It is truly heartening to know you care so much.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a message for all Hatchet subscribers and to any others who want to purchase a copy of the forthcoming Parallel LIves: A Social History of Lizzie A.
