I know that many of our recent "posts" have been lacking
illustrations, giving the "blog" a wan and distant air. There has been a similar dearth of the
long, baffling rants that make "blogging" what it is. And perhaps I seem to
rely too much on McNeil to do all the work - though it's hard to argue with
results! Well, I sent off the final (?!?) version of
the novel yesterday, so I just want you to know that I will be available to do what is really important: "blog." For example, did you know that I'm reading "The Bear" by
William Faulkner right now? It turns out that Faulkner is good! Now how would you know that if there weren't any "blogs"?
