Hi!!!
I'm waving from under a huge weight -- I'm still marking A level English Language exams and am not sure it will ever end at this rate, considering that I've been doing so since 8 June. I've marked 337 thus far. I'm supposed to mark 380 total. Just when I thought there was a light at the end of the tunnel and it wasn't a train coming to hit me, the exam board just asked me to mark even more...
Have to recommend an incredible fantasy book, though: Naomi Novik's Uprooted. Loved it, loved it, loved it.
