And John C. Wright, whom we have seen discussing Wolfe before, has
picked it up and excerpted it:

> An excerpt from Gene Wolfe’s mediation on how to write a multi-volume novel. The original is here: http://www.gwern.net/docs/2007-wolfe
>
> Since just last night I encountered a grave difficulty with my own multivolume work THE UNWITHERING WORLD with the setting, I thought it was providential that I should come across this. The words below are Wolfe’s (or Homer’s or Kipling’s) but not mine, and he is the finest novelist alive today, in or out of genre.
