On three volume novels

"Anybody can write a three-volume novel; it merely requires a complete ignorance of both life and literature," quoth Oscar Wilde.  Whether our friend Oscar is correct or not, I am at least well qualified to find out.  I wrote 'On Princesses,' as a stand alone, complete story but that dreaded modern epidemic: the sequel, is starting to show signs of having infected the pitiful thing.  I am playing with further adventures in that silly world and we shall see what comes of it.
