This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Re: WONDERS OF URTH AND SKY, (another fine dream) did you include among
your list of stories "The Old Woman Whose Rolling Pin Is the Sun" or
do you consider it outside the brown book?  Just curious!

(My plans for doing it: I did include TOWWRPITS on the list; I didn't
consider getting Gene Wolfe to write intros since I wanted to create
an artifact as close to the "real" brown book as possible . . .
including new stories by Wolfe based upon extant fragments . . . and
the artwork mentioned, of course.  Water stained pages from the Mine at
Saltus?  "Handwritten" entries by Severian in the back pages, the
story-telling competition stories?  Sure, why not!  But only after
the relatively easy task of a hardcover THE ISLAND OF DOCTOR DEATH .
. . and then one or two new collections of uncollected short stories:
TALK OF MANDRAKES and REMEMBRANCE OF THINGS PROUST . . .)
