Basic Info| Name: | Beth |
|---|
BioI'm Beth. 18, English, mild tea addict, studying History at Oxford. Worrying obsession with the French Revolution, thanks to AS History and A Place of Greater Safety.
I also have a tendency to write not-great poetry, and slightly better (but quite strange) stories. My nano page is at http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/180764.
I'm on twitter, you can find me here @baitman.
Rowing tends to take over my life, so I might go on about that occasionally. And various other things that interest me and probably not very many other people. Hopefully not too dull overall.
Overall, not very much in the way of sanity. And this will inevitably get worse as time goes on. Sorry...
Sleep to the noise of running water
To-morrow to be crossed, however deep;
This is no river of the dead or Lethe,
To-night we sleep
On the banks of Rubicon – the die is cast;
There will be time to audit
The accounts later, there will be sunlight later
And the equation will come out at last.
