Back

I was absolutely amazed to receive this email in late August. I was so excited to think that the book/proposal could resurface after such a long time and felt certain that this delayed response must hold great meaning and potential for my work.

I had been really sure that if people hadn't responded by the end of the first month of posting, that would be the end of the matter. And so I had been concentrating upon presenting my work in an experimental context locally (at the university in which I study) and also in political environments as a part of a specific activist movement.

I do not think it is appropriate for me to reveal the identity of the academic who sent me this wonderful response because unfortunately the person became ill and was absent from work shortly afterwards which prevented them from being able to participate in my research.
