Title: Get this man an editor.
Review: When I took creative writing in the 8th grade, my teacher passed out a study on writers who used Macintoshes vs. writers who used PCs. The verdict: writers who used Macs spent too much time on formatting the appearance in a creative way and less upon the writing itself. This directly applies to the fifty pages of spiraling text. If you put the text in a single paragraph... is it really that interesting? If Danielewski had skipped the hundred pages of footnotes that are useless (why read fictional footnotes? 3 pages of fictional names?) and cut Johnny Truant (can anyone argue that this character is believable? he was not charming enough to follow through with his sexual escapades, even his name is ridiculous); the story is readable. Worthwhile though? There are 15 haunted house stories that surpass this.
