I sent my thesis off to my committee this morning. Now I wait for them to respond with whether any of the times I suggested for my defense work for them. Two of them are on a lot of committees, but I'm not sure how many are defending anything right now.

I have also transferred a third of the money required for the co-op shares, so that's happening, too. I'm planning on moving to Berlin in August 2020. I'll have to find a WG for a year or so, until the co-op is built, which could be tricky (because housing in Berlin is pretty ridiculous). So I'm counting on having to go back over next May/June to tour WGs and sign a lease, with any luck.

As a way to try to earn more money, I've started a Patreon. https://www.patreon.com/sflinguistics I'm working on my first column at the moment. I plan on writing about portrayals of linguistics in SFF, language use in SFF, and if I get enough subscribers, add an academic end of things (article reviews/summaries) about fandom and language. I haven't done much in the way of promotion yet, but it's on my list.

Sounds great! I'm looking forward to hearing more about it as things progress!
