Haile Sellassie Family Web

Mirror Site (Tripod)

... The original site could be seen at AngelFire But I have almost reached the limit of free space and still have more texts to post. Beside, I use Tripod for my Film Site, it's just next door! The most serious reason is that I need to redesign the site. To take out all those worseless banners and organized everything around the book "H.I.M."

I worked on this manuscript for many years, but I didn't realize that the website is only to support the book. At first, I placed a few fragments, then more. Not all chapters are in, although all of them are listed. Even after three years in front of my monitor I am fully comfortable with the electronic form of reading. I miss the book, even in softcover, but I have to time to husle agents and publishers. I rather have you, virtual readers.
The book is only a draft. You and I reading it together. I rewrite it while you read. I don't mind you watching the process; I used to "open rehearsals" -- I let my students watch me directing. I don't know the final form of the book, it has its own logic, resisting my organizational attempts. I even don't know if this is my book...
