Kudos to you for some many fine works. well my one Rudy inspired, still currently stalled, attempt at writing a short story tells me that it is a hell of a lot of work to write any book and have it come out anything like coherent.

I'm always interested in seeing how the various subplots converge and mesh. As a nonmathematician, I imagine it's something like watching an equation fall into place. “Sloppy” it ain’t.

“What are you going to name the new metanovel, anyway?” asked Jayjay, drawn into the drifty flow of conversation despite his fading sense that he should worry.

“Hive Mind,” said Thuy, telling him the name for the first time.

“Instead of writing Hive Mind, I want Hive Mind to write me.”

(i bet robert anton wilson quoted robert anson heinlein, somewhere..) and i had the idea yesterdayish the 14thFeb to write a play for someone with 16 monitors (black macbooks maybe), all her as interacting charactors, scripted, in costumes, in personnas, in sync, woven, as theatre goes, but let her be live on stage with all that 'railride', an open element, unscripted, free to riff amidst all that 'done' crafted perfect-ness. but you have been there and done that!, i guess, bachaos/onemanshow, and the wierd collisional collusional intersection between the 'classic book' and the unwriteable-fleeting-angelic-realization happens perhaps as much in the minds of the readers (the observer-effectors) as in the multi-pass worldbuilder's careful attention to all possible aspects of a Great Work. sigh. i wanted to say, but it sounded wrong, again,
