Always in progress: "A Desertful of Roses: the Urdu Ghazals of Mirza Asadullah Khan Ghalib." This is an extensive historical and critical commentary on the whole Urdu Divan-e Ghalib, along with many unpublished verses. It's by far the biggest piece of academic work that I've ever undertaken. I'm creating it as an *online project*, and I plan to work on it for the rest of my life.

Always in progress: "A Garden of Kashmir: the Ghazals of Mir Muhammad Taqi Mir." This is a commentary on selected verses (mostly those chosen and annotated by S. R. Faruqi) by the other great Urdu classical ghazal poet; the work also provides two kinds of indexing for the whole huge kulliyat. It's an *online project* that will be wonderfully endless.
