A book is written.


In the great spirit of punk--in the name of DIY and counter-virtuosity--I have penciled a book. The text, still in pencil and still on loose pages of paper, awaits editing and conversion. I wonder if it will be received as ramblings from the fringe of the fringe, or if it will find an audience. Will there be readers who will read it?

My sense is that it all depends on finding the right risk-minded publisher. Second, I would expect dour and sour reviews. Third, and much later down the line, I would expect a growing audience of contrarians, anarchists, philosophers, and oddballs to take up the ideas. A cult following, if you will. What will become?
