There are passages where Ron seems to be making the point that Narrativism is to do with a particular process of making story rather than story as a product (the standard boiler plate here being all three modes produce story-as-product).

This is laced through with bits that seem to me wrong - the very particular use of pastiche, an odd comment somewhere about clues, the particular text from Agone in the impossible thing section, etc - that I've yet to decide are YMMV or are actually.  I suspect we'll, justly, see a lot of praise, followed by a number of threads hitting on the issues.

Hello,

I think the essay needs extensive links in the glossary. I did a much better job with that in the other two.

Best,
Ron
