Fanatic! Thank you so much for coming back. Last time around, I was faced with some challenges in developing the manuscript. If “Stay Fanatic!!! Vol. 2” was only going to take in 2016, it would have been too short. If I included the writing from 2017 as well, it would have been too much, even by Fanatic standards. I decided to put the two years of writing together, divide the word count in half and round to the nearest month. If you’re expecting a radical divergence in subject matter this time around, forget it! We’re going to check out rare records, interesting clippings, obsess over the minuscule and wade through tributaries of information, notebooks out and headlamps on full. This time around, I decided not to use 7”s on the cover but instead, bootleg LPs. I figured it would make things interesting. I started work on this immediately after finishing SF!!! V2 and it’s only now, a good way into 2021, that we have concluded work on the manuscript and scans. In an effort to dig the “nothing new here” trench even deeper, work on the next installment has commenced. I know. As I said in the previous volume, if I could stop, I would. Thanks again for investing your time in this “Really, HR, this is a bit much” endeavor. Stay Fanatic!!!
