My final thesis is going to consist of five chapters: an introduction, a conclusion, and three chapters making up the meat of the thing. Today I had a meeting with my main tutor and he confirmed that the final one of those three chapters is ready! Yay! I was particularly pleased because it is by far the longest of the chapters, weighing in at a hefty nineteen thousand words compared to the other chapters of around thirteen thousand. To have that much text that is ready for submission all in one chunk is a great relief.

I’m really excited because this means that the heavy theorising is out of the way. The conclusion chapter is coming along well, and I’ll have the introduction to do after that, but the end is very definitely in sight!
