A book as dogma

[rowens]

It's useless to publish a book if I'm going to post everything I write anyway. But this other stuff I can't post, it's too long and unfinished, or at least not proofread, anyway. Mostly fiction. . . . But I'm not asking a question, I'm stating my uncertainty. At the same time I'm discussing the kinds of things that go on, the things I mentioned in the first post. The questionable beauty of failure, and the decentering of the finished book as an ideal.
