39. The Novel Is a Concentrated Dose of the Writer's Aesthetic

The episode begins with an announcement that I've started working on a novel, the choice having been made following an inspiring conversation I had this past weekend with my tattoo artist. I take a moment to explain how that might affect the release of new episodes in this podcast series. The rest of the episode explores what a novel written these days achieves, and whether that achievement is enticing for a so-called philosopher, such as myself, who would like to think they're slowly wending their way down one of the multiple pathways which sooner or later all lead to the Truth about reality. Is writing a novel a distraction from such a path, or is it just another route which ends where I think I would like to end, as philosopher? Such questions I ask in this episode.
