Thank you!
Yes, I think I did! I'm a big fan. They don't offer Greek at the moment though, so that would be a reason to look elsewhere.
I'm really impressed! My school didn't offer any classics either, so I didn't even know it was a thing until way after I'd already done my maths degree. I'm doing my Greek study alongside an OU degree in Classical Studies. I think it works well as a combination.
It will be my 4th term with HM Classics Academy – I'm slowly working my way towards GCSE standard! I really enjoy my Saturday afternoon sessions. My tutor is Irish and she is fab.
I have those as well!
I confess to mostly skipping them. But I hadn't considered reading them at double speed. There could be some fun in that...
I prefer redcurrant jelly.
I don't often work on fiction or with self publishers, so it's a bit different for me. I think that an introductory phone/video call is very helpful in setting the scope, even if agreed by email, and follow-up calls are useful when things are complex or time-sensitive. Still hate them though!
There are rumours that the City University of Newcastle upon Tyne was quite far down the track before they pivoted to Northumbria University. I've often wondered who first spotted the problem.
Sometimes, for instance when working on non-fiction for a publisher, I might not have much contact with the author(s) directly. But this is obviously never the case if the author is also the client!
