I’d forgotten why I’d called this “Paper Mache”: it was the idea I could walk away from my fake self — a fraud who thought he was a writer — like I could from a paper mache rendering of myself, only the problem was the copy weighed as much as I did and seemed actually to be me 🙂 (and of course, it is writing itself.)
I just got through editing it — my editor is myself, later in time — and was pleased to find it in pretty good shape. I took out a couple extended bits of “interior Platonic dialogue” was the main revision. But I haven’t yet gotten away from my “paper mache.”
