The Antarctic on 1st April 1911.

path retraced · almost airless
respite arraigned · among the rawdoggers

path of no shoulder · & shardborn entities

"Horror builds the mansion of ruined intuition..."

--Awhile back i proposed a book written with mismatched halves. It appears that such has already been written! "Michael Korda...was working as an editor at Simon & Schuster, and a few years ago he wrote a memoir of those days, entitled Another Life. ...Harold Robbins...started writing one book to get the advance, wrote half of it, and put it aside. When he needed the money, he finished it, but he'd forgotten much of the first part, and so the second part had an inconsistent plot with mostly different characters. Asked what to do about it, he said, 'Leave it.' (Korda is too professional to say which, but I believe it was The Pirate.)" --Arthur Hlavaty in Derogatory Reference (now Nice Distinctions) 3 via Xvarenah 9-14-03
