I’ve written an essay that may outlive me.

I put together a personal website back in ’00, and I added essays to it periodically over the few years following.  I haven’t done much with it since around ’03 or ’04.  Nevertheless, an essay I wrote back in 2000, Chaos Dogma, continues to draw attention.  It’s been cited and debated in a few places over the years, most recently on January 25th of this year on a site called JoeUser (and I was even properly credited and linked to!).

But the fun doesn’t end there.  The essay was cited in the book Magia Sexualis: Sex, Magic, and Liberation in Modern Western Esotericism by Hugh B. Urban.  I haven’t seen the quote, but here’s a link to the footnote.

This is really kind of cool.

(For those keeping score, my essay Why Amber Should Be Played Diceless drew a fair amount of attention at one point, but not nearly to the same degree.)
