Interest in IV seems to be flagging and I may beg off on my offer to
host ch 15, or do a half assed job. Part of the problem is that most
of the characters and themes that require some research are on the
table and I wonder if we would be better to jam the last chapters
into say a 3 week summation of the final chapters and final thoughts
on the novel as a whole. I don't want to throw us off a schedule
that others are happier with but more hopin to see some revived
interest and summary thoughts about what IV adds to the body of of
work of TRP. Also wondering if quickening the pace after tugging at
some of the threads will provoke new thoughts, reveal patterns ,
reveal reader reactions etc. more clearly.
Basically the listers don't seem engaged in the chapter at hand at
this point. So just askin. Aye?
