So, as the Mayans aren't with us anymore to collect any royalties, and so far there's been no 're-re-release of the Notion Club papers,' one might want to go out and buy a shovel while they're still available.

Well, but but but. What if one's way of enjoying life
is to write books? And, anyway, I'm sure that there are lots of theories/ideas/ motivations/promptings/urgings/ authorical canonical statements which actually claim that writers write to cheat the gift of death. So,
alatar, I'm not sure your inverse proportional theory would hold portent, if not water.
