Love it, man. Need more fiction like this in my life. Currently reading The Complete Cosmicomics, which reminds me of your style.

My friend, this means a LOT to me, I know I can go very edgy/lengthy on these chapters. But a recent wonderful piece by Junot Diaz was so encouraging about the idea that it's part of reaching out to readers who can embrace and "do the work" of very different stories and different world-building. Again, I am very grateful for your time and encouragement. (I'm particularly excited about picking out tunes that go with each "scene" I've ever written for this "book #3" project, and I hope folks will be willing to try them. :)

I listened to a few as I read. Brave new world of multimedia, Edward. I’m glad I could offer some encouragement

I love your writing style! This was my first piece of your fiction I've read and I'm hooked. It will take awhile for me to catch up. Is it best to start from your oldest fiction posts and work my way up, or do you have a recommended starting place?

Thank you very much for the kind words and for investing your time in reading this piece! If you wish, there can be read "chronologically" for the broader story. On the home page is a "page" devoted for this series, https://edwardrooster.substack.com/p/retrieve-a-book-3-project, as this book is being drafted.

OK, quoting Stereolab earns an instant “Subscribe.”
