This is the kind of thing an author likes to carry into a publishers' office with a new manuscript! (or, these days, to e-mail with the electronic text.) My 'day job' is editing books and articles for scholars and journalists here in Vienna who want to publish in English, and right now I'm booked solid through November. But when I can see the surface of my desk again I will take up the problems of rewriting my constellation history manuscript and how and where to publish it. I've had a tendency to drag my feet about finishing the book because I keep finding new information. For example, I've long known that the image of the Winged Horse came to Greece from Mesopotamia. But that does not necessarily mean that the constellation itself did. My assumption was that the constellation of Pegasus was a Greek invention. But just two weeks ago, while rereading a journal article, I realized that I had in my hands the necessary evidence that the constellation of Pegasus was indeed invented in Mesopotamia. It's very hard, with I book of this nature, to say, "Well, that's it. Finished!"--because in your heart you know it really isn't and never will be. Thanks again.
