Writer's Block: You Don't Know Me

[Error: unknown template qotd]i have nevah got on with TRISTRAM SHANDY even tho it is dr quack's favourite book and she has her favourite page enlarged on her wall as a big FRAMED PICTURE

i like the idea of it enormously but somehow the thing itself i never get anywhere with

no it's chapters 39 and 40, i think -- with the little wiggly diagrams that map the "straight" line of the story so far

[livejournal.com profile] byebyepride and I were taught by a dude who was a world-renowned expert (or so he said) on Tristram Shandy, and took particular joy in the marbled page as an act of anti-printer mischief: he had a large collection of different editions and showed us all the various approaches taken.
