Coming out

I'm not sure how to do it, but think that there comes a time in anyone's life when you have to admit to those around you - those you work with, socialise with, even, in a few cases, respect - and to yourself who, or what, you are.

I've invested a lot of my time, my life and, come to think of it, my money in this Community, and I feel more at home here than anywhere else (except with a sturdy pole in my hands on the Cambridge Backs, but that's another story). I'm sure I'm not alone, but I hold a senior position amongst us Beaker Folk of Husborne Crawley, and I'm not sure what my revelation will do to its cohesion, or its members.

Mrs Hnaef knows, of course: how can I hide it from her? She's been more understanding than I thought anyone - particularly a woman - could ever be. But I'm not sure what it'll do to the Archdruid.

I've always known. I was born to be, and, as soon as I was old enough, even proud to be, that most dangerous and destabilising of creatures: I say it out loud, "I'm an Anglican. And proud."

But whither now? And how to break it to the Community? And most terrifying of all - to the Archdruid?
