strange_complexOh. My. God.
I have written a book.
*checks*
No, I definitely have. There it is.
WHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
This is certainly turning out to be an incredible year for me.
I can tell that I've written a book, not just because I've got to the end. But because I really feel that I've said everything I have to say about Roman suburbs. That's it now. There's nothing more to add. It's all in the book. And, bar a few final tasks, and perhaps the odd extra word chopped out here and there, it's ready to go out to the world.
The first sentence reads thus:
"A Roman city, like a text, a vase or a statue, is an artefact of the society which produced it."
and the last one thus:
"Thus it is in their use of the urban periphery as a place for constructing monumental public buildings that the relationship with Rome can best be traced."
If you want to find out what happens in between, you'd better join the queue to buy a copy, hadn't you? ;)
