About

The work, and how it's made

Small ideas, taken seriously.

Glints & Glimmers is 14 books, 911,129 words total. Each one takes a small, specific idea and follows it further than is comfortable — through its own structure, its own claims, and its own limits.

The method, as the books describe it

Every book on this site closes its own argument against itself somewhere in its pages — a named device that only gets used once, a claim the research doesn't actually support, a piece of sourcing the book admits to rather than hides. That isn't a marketing device. It's in the manuscripts, and this site quotes it verbatim on every book's page, under a section called the honest section.

Several of the books use a recurring closing device inside their own chapters — a named page or ritual the book returns to at the end of each chapter or part, when one exists. Where a book has no such device, none is claimed for it.

What this site is, and isn't

• It is a record of 14 finished manuscripts, with an honest accounting of what each one claims, what it doesn't, and where it says so itself.
• It is not a store. No book here has a price, an ISBN, or a place to buy it — that infrastructure doesn't exist yet.
• It carries no reviews, no ratings, no endorsements, and no claims about the author's life. What isn't in the books themselves doesn't appear here.
