Help! I'm a Book Writer Trapped in a Blog's Body

The experiment so far:

** Have learned quite a bit already from the comments: new sources, new ideas, interesting perspectives.

** Bit unsure what I'm doing. Guess I'm to test ideas, ask questions, try to make connections. But in what order? As they come to me? When you're writing a book lots comes from lots of directions.

** The blog form -- which imposes with some force a reverse chronological organization -- is an odd one for a book writer. Since everything comes in upside down, you are led with some obstenancy away from narrative.
