Euge! The proofs have arrived for Annus Mirabilis: More Latin for Everyday Life (coming soon to all good bookshops). And the front cover has come through, too. Suddenly I feel like a proper author, this being my second ‘proper’ book. I don’t count the Gramophone Good CD Guides which I edited back in the 90s, nor the two books I issued under my own Pineapple Publications imprint, viz: Amida: A Novel and Latin for Everyday Life. Perhaps someone will reconsider Amida one day, but for now I’m content. In the last week I’ve had (a) a royalty cheque for Annus Horribilis (my first!), (b) the proofs for Annus Mirabilis and (c) a commission to write a new book.
This really is turning out to be a bit of an Annus Mirabilis for me after all. Hercle!
