A black oval, like the mark left by an overzealous copyeditor’s black pen on a manuscript, circling a typo. In this case it’s the pen of Cindy, the associate assigned the task of editing one of Anderson’s briefs. The situation was unusual from Cindy’s point of view. What partner writes his own brief? And singles out a first-year associate to edit it? Strange, very strange. But not as strange as the brief Cindy is reading. It seems like nonsense to her. Not because it’s sophisticated legalese. But because it’s not. It reads more like a rant or manifesto, peppered with phrases like “cosmic damnation” and “interdimensional cubing.” And most unsettling of all is Anderson’s bizarre penchant for semicolons. Cindy circles another.

When Napoleon's troops raided Rome in the late 18th century, sixty manuscripts were stolen from the pontifical chapel; many of these are known to have been cut up and reassembled.

I don't usually write notes on my actual manuscript documents because I'm kind of a neat freak about them, but sometimes the dialogue that pops into my head at 4AM is just SO GOOD I skip a few lines down and jot some stuff down for the future. Just a reminder of where I'm going and not to forget it.

I could get back to those edits on my manuscript or I could drink Scotch and play Europa Universalis.

I chose this topic over Medieval Gay 🌈™️, primarily because I had no desire to research about manuscript marginalia and depictions of medieval twinks, but it’s really actually pretty cool, if get over the misogyny of it all (which I’m not, just to be clear). So yeah, it’s weird.

According Dr. Paul Booth of Kelle University, who discovered the manuscript, “either it refers to an inexperienced copulator, referring to someone trying to have sex with the navel, or it’s a rather extravagant explanation for a dimwit, someone so stupid they think that this is the way to have sex.”

#SundayReading For a long time I have dreamed of such a breakthrough, I thought as I set off from my flat in Glebe on that Monday morning - walking to a café in Crown Street for no other reason than to meet the sister, Pamela, so that I could give her back the manuscript Panthers and the […]
