Not an ambush or revolt, this time. Just paying my respects.<br>
<br>
I'm Boudicca, she of the frightening countenance, long red hair, and harsh voice, if Dio Cassius is to be believed.<br>
<br>
I was up late one night, in the middle of research, and came across this board, and found information I needed. You all looked like a friendly bunch (for Romans), and I thought I would at least make it a habit to check in frequently, even if I say little.<br>
<br>
For personal pleasure, and hopefully at some future date, for publication, I am an historical-fiction writer. My main area of interest is Roman-Britain, and for a while, I was studying the Celtic half of that, until I realized you really can't study one, without studying the other. About that time, Gladiator came out, and pushed me over the brink. (Yes, I know, I have read the threads. LOL!)<br>
<br>
Anyway, thank you for such a warm, well-researched forum. Truly a joy to read.<br>
<br>
Boudicca<br>
