2) creation, 4) housekeeping

working on book of old material. compiled to show weak early efforts, taking the idea from Burroughs who said such books would be valuable as most accomplished authors destroy or otherwise lose early writing. the benefit for the enamored to see where their heroes began.

DAILY ARTIFACT LOG - GOAL

My artifacts are not stillborn or arrested in early development so much by unresolved planning or structural defects but instead are slowly pinched off by small stoppers and momentum-less days. The creative effort not lost to hemorrhage but leached off by the routine everyday droplets. The late arriving echo audience hardly privy to the daily toil that piles the artifacts for a lifetime before their immediate awareness, appraisal, and acquisition. Deadlines aid the effort but are product-bound and necessarily presume an audience / patron / publisher / distributor / and such.
