Wow!! There is so much to take in here.Thank you so much for doing this and for showing just how much technical skill Joyce puts into his writing. No wonder it took him several years to create his books. I feel a bit daunted by your suggestion of trying to write in Joyce's style but I will try as it does seem to be an excellent way of understanding the techniques he was using and why he uses them.
You are most welcome, Laura, and I am thrilled that you are willing to experiment with using Joyce's techniques, as it will make you a much better reader as well as develop your skill as a writer, I firmly believe. Don't worry if you don't achieve 'perfect' copies at first, or even after a lot of practice- as I know only too well after years of trying it's impossible to reproduce Joyce!
This is excellent. Am going to give it a go.
