Update

The spliced out bits of things I can keep from the other thesis have been sewn together in a rough, expandable outline that will grow into a thesis as scenes are grafted in to replace the note paragraphs. This new creation is now of a rival size to the original, though still very choppy. Eventually, my Frankenthesis will be worth more than the sum of its parts. Now, it still lies lifeless on the slab.

But there are storms a-brewin', oh yes. Storms a-brewin'. (Thanks for the encouragement, KM)
